In the Quicksand

{Post: 176/365}
it is easy
to love
the lovable
if everyone
worked at 
being lovable
and loving 
there would be
no need for
jealousy
competition
hurt
or having to choose
to let go
and walk away
from people
who choose 
a lesser path
it is a flaw in me
that I walk away
instead of choosing
to stay
i am not strong enough
to teach
or patient enough 
to wait
for their learning
some people 
just
WON'T
learn
staying
brings me down
to their level
rather than
them coming up to mine
and I just don't
like myself
when that happens
 I'm learning to let go
so that I won't drown
in the quicksand
with them
and yet I hope
someday
they will see
