poem: it’s the intent to see – 21/06/22

When they try to diminish you

stop you from expressing what is within you

smile and be positive

ignoring their jibes and

obvious attack towards you

there is no point in acknowledging the intent

the internet is full of people like these

there are many many others

with hearts heaven sent

focus on these beings

those with kind natures

who don’t need to be stars of the show

the battle the others waged,

there is no time nor place

for them with me

this I inherently know.
