Cleaned-up ~

Its when you start to understand that what's going on!

Some things are changed within me;

I realized it when
People try to hurt me in a foxy way and
Instead of bellowing back or answering them, their way
I just keep silent
and watch their level of shame

I realized it when
people try to caste a taunt someway
and I just smile and leave that place
avoiding their potty mouth

I realized it when
I became composed at the thought of
what people think about me
& how they react
Of course! It’s none of their business

I realized it when
I started feeling happy when
People talked behind my back
and I just stride along
its then I knew, I am a step ahead

Calmness, healing, laughing, stealing
Battering, chattering, gossiping & flattering

Stepping away from these miseries
They won’t understand my gene
and I don’t want them
to know either!

Flaunt like you own it from inside!

Walking away from toxic people is a wise move but in future they should work as templates to avoid similar persons. Life is too short to waste on such people and circumstances. But at the same time when you are pushed to wall, you have to retort back and show them the mirror but that is the last option.

[Pragati Chaudhary]

Well, yeah
Obviously the very last option

Thankyou for the reviews :)
Keep reviewing!

"..... level of shame" I love that phrase at first glance.

Great work. I needed this. the poem came in the right moment. Funny thing is, your silence kills them.

[Pragati Chaudhary]

Yes actually!

You got the point.
It's better to be silent & watch then to blabber un necessarily!

No one should care and bother what others tell them. That fact is very well expressed in this poem. It is an example of such.

Great!
That's the thing. If they're jealous it means they think themselves inferior to get jealous. Such people should be least of our concern!
An amazing piece;)
