Mountains Out of Mole Hills

Did I disappoint you today?

It was a small misunderstanding

I know you struggle

When we've all told you

That you

Well

You suck at explaining things

Especially

When it comes to simple things

I know you can't help it

I should be used to it

Should be

Should be able to ignore

The shove aside

But

For all my no-holds-barred

I'm my own woman attitude

A little bitty part of me

Got hurt just a little

But I won't say anything

Because then it would be my turn

To blow another situation

Completely out of proportion

And though I know you try

To spare me from further harm

I feel it all the same

So I smile

And I smile

And force a laugh

Because really

It's nothing important

Just a little argument

Packed with so much frustration

And we didn't mean any of it

Because really

It's nothing.

Author's Note

People can say it's nothing, when clearly, it's NOT nothing. Ooh, the double negative...

I hate when people say it's nothing, and you can't get them to talk it out! nicely written.
