Yelling

I covered my ears,
To tune out the yelling,
For someone was mad at me again,
I don't know what I've done,
All I did was speak up about what was bothering me,
Why am I getting yelled at?
All I did was say I was uncomfortable,
All I said was that I didn't like your behavior,
But I ended up getting yelled at.
I apologized.
I said sorry with tears in my eyes.
They started yelling at me again for crying,
They said I only wanted attention.
I said sorry again.
They yelled at me for saying sorry.
I apologized in my mind for saying sorry too much.
I just wanted to solve the problem,
But I ended up making it worse,
I tried so hard,
But they yelled at me for my efforts.
I just wanted to discontinue the uncomfortableness,
But I only made it more uncomfortable,
I just wanted to speak up about the problem,
But once again I heard,
"It's your fault",
"You brought this upon yourself",
"Don't talk to me",
"You're so annoying",
"You're only crying for attention",
"Go away for the love of god!",
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to upset you.
I'm so sorry.
