Role reversal


Tired of waitin'
skatin
on thin ice
rice paper walkin
to feed egos
the size of the sun.
Cat and mouse
it's all a game,
while the cat's away
they call my name.
Their indecision
leads to division
and eventually destruction...
No longer no longer no longer
will their choices
rule
my
life,
my
heart,
my
world.
Realization that I am more
than someone's 2nd thought.
Eyes wide open to the fact that
I am more than
a matter of convenience.
Much more...
Roles reverse now -
I am the cat
they are the mice
don't think twice,
it's my game now
and I won't play nice.

this was on facebook the other day loved it.

There comes a time in life when you walk away from all the pointless drama
and people who create it, and surround yourself with people who make you
laugh so hard that you forget the bad and focus on the good. Life is
too short to be anything but happy.
