Trust Issues
Give a guy a glimpse
of whatever battle you face in a night,
he will go to war for you.
He will also lose for you.
A friend recently told me
that it’s becoming harder to tell
whether I’m in a good mood or not.
Sadly, that’s my point.
P.S.A.
Unless I specifically come to you
asking for help or advice,
keep that shit to yourself.
Life is easier, if lonelier,
keeping my problems to myself.
If no one takes the time to know them,
they sure as hell can’t find a way to fix them.

I LOVE the third stanza! Too funny!
Yeah. That one was my favorite to write, although I was certainly more annoyed at the time of writing!
Such a true poem. This poem sounded like you talking as well. I liked it!
Sounded like me. Not sure I’ve received that kind of comment on my work before. Thank you so much Chris!
You put down very well what we all feel at times. I like the informal tone as well!
Good to read your work again.
Thank you so much, Sylvia! I’ll be sure to look for your work as well!
