Sit There & Die Then

C. Love
Refusal to see
Open your eyes
What reflects in the mirror
The cause of demise
Each fork in the road
All the twists
Every turn
You chose your direction
Wrote your own lessons to learn

"It" didn't happen to you
You happened to "it"
Weren't force fed your situation
Willing, chewed, swallowed
Bit by bit
Unhappy where you stand
You put you there
What's stopping you from leaving
Depart
Quit whining in despair

Dysfunctional relationship
Are you an escaped detainee?
No one can keep you
Where you don't want to be
You constructed your surroundings
One bad decision at a time
At any point you can change it
Your choice
Try applying your mind

No shackled ankles
Or prison bars to confine
If you want to be a prisoner
It's your waste of time
Don't bombard those progressing
With your 'whoa is me' blues
If you aren't determined to win
You're destined to lose

    Such wisdom in one so young. I'm bipolar so I've been in many dire situations. I had to lean on the Word of God and the old proverb "When the going gets tough, the tough get going". Now I'm well and doing well,
