I see you think that I don't care, <br />That hate surrounds you everywhere. <br />You were wrong until today, <br />You've got to learn: watch what you say. <br /> <br />Take some time to stop and see <br />The pressures ailing me <br /> <br />I take a lot, and still I smile <br />Overlooking for a while <br />Things that people say and do, <br />The line was crossed this time by you. <br /> <br />The tame is getting old, too old to play <br />But you insist on it every day, <br />When it comes to the end <br />You start over again. <br /> <br />Well, as far as I'm concerned <br />It's way past time you learned <br />Trying to help, my world was tearing <br />Now I'm past the point of caring. <br /> <br />Take some time to stop and see <br />The pressure that is ailing me <br />I hope you put the game away <br />I've had enough, I refuse to play.<br /><br />Jodie Phillips<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/vicious-circle-1989/
