Endure

Journey of A Thousand Miles Begins When You Put Your Foot Down


I have always refused to put up with bullshit 
 But I also happen to 
make certain exceptions 
Especially for you 
Just because it was you...

Years flew by
Encountering your antics
The sarcasm, the mockery
All of that toxic trait 
I knew you possessed 
Since day one 

I persevered 
the red flags 
Simply because 
It was your way of 
Building a safe fort 
Shielding from 
emotions, monologues, action 
 
I endured them all 
open hearted and willingly 
As your once 
wonderful summer companion...

Never thought 
I would 
take that phrase to heart did you? 
Neither did I 
But guess what ? 
That was probably 
the ONLY nice thing 
You have ever said 
or rather, texted about me...  

With that,
I put my foot down 
I'm done enduring  
Let's just stop this 
altogether... 


The end of HeyYou. I decided on this not too long ago, though I have just found the time and effort to properly execute it. With that being said, life hoes on... 😉
