They don't get it.
They filter before they process.
Polished words are the only exceptions.
The truth isn't polished therefore it is never to be allowed.
They hear every word, every detail.
They listen to none.
"Be rational, perspective is key, see it from their point of view" are things you're so often told.
If you've tried them all, try one more time.
One. More. Time.
Proof that they don't listen.
You explain your dilemma and they respond, "Do better."
Do better you say? You do better!
You listen to what I say!
Do better! Do better! Do better!
But I can't say that, can I?
I have no right to say it.
It's my responsibility to take.
Own up to what I've done.
But ah, what then?
What happens once responsibility is taken?
The same old thing.
Go back to the old routine.
You take your routines and your try-once-more's and your do-better's and shove em!
I need answers!
But I have no right to be upset with you and I'm not upset with you.
Understand when I yell, understand when I cry that it isn't your fault but I need to know
Why.
