Mistreatment
As long as it is believed,
You are the one pegged...
To be used and teased,
By others who see your kindness
As a sign that you are weak.
Don't lose any sleep.
Remember people like that...
Will someday reveal themselves as creeps.
As long as you keep,
What you say honest and true...
You can hold your head up high.
Wherever you go!
Whatever you do!
Know in your heart there are few like you.
So many today say they pray for peace...
And they are the first ones to show,
Someone like you...
A unity means nothing at all.
If it can't be welcomed and/or released.
Especially towards another,
Who shows and gives respect!
Familiarity breeds contempt with intention.
And there are some living lives with that done.
Regardless of who receives mistreatment next.
And jealousy is immediately exposed...
If you or anyone
Can produce without them
Something that merits success!
And placing your steps away from those like this...
Is a suggestion recommended,
That has been put to the test!
Don't waste your time trying to understand them.
Be glad they have shown you,
A way of life you can't accept!
Let them plunge into a sinkhole...
This is what they want!
Assist them to get what they expect!
