Mock me not….

Diffident,
but not contemptuous,
there,
no, here,
is the difference,
between you,
and me…

you do not and probably never will
understand
that tearing down
my defenses
only builds my resolve…

who are you
to judge me when you do not know
what goes on behind
closed doors…

and your so called perceived
perception gives you your only will
power

to speak.

Ye of loud voice,
and less manners, I know you…

and you will stumble
and I, I would have held out my hand,
but you…

you do not need me.

You have your own walls
to climb over.

(big hugggssssssss) I think so many cheat to perfect the pole vault or climb the wall in that matter, you must start by loving and appreciating yourself and climbing your on walls before you are capable of resolving others! (sigh) my thoughts are with you, sweet friend, this is poignant, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Oh yes, there are lots of people who
thrive on judging others and putting
them down. I guess it makes them feel
bigger or something. Really, I think it's
jealousy, of sorts....

this is powerful!
I felt it.

I wish people would think twice.. or three or four times before they speak, or act. But then that pertains to everyone.. sorry thinking aloud.
Enjoyed!

Always, Alyssa
