Like a kettle boiling,

You finally erupted from sheer pressure,

Decided to put your woes in writing.

However, there’ll be people

Who won’t agree with you,

Assume the worst

And start prying.

It’s not as if you love fighting,

They never really thought 

How long you’ve been brewing

To turn bitter and start fighting

Instead of merely crying

And starting a storm within.

In the end, we can’t change 

A person’s thinking.

But I realized that some things are better off not written,

For repercussions will start rippling.

Writing off the offender’s name 

Out of the book of your life is worth trying.
