    The Aftermath

    Angrily
    I sat down
    Fending for myself
    And my hurt feelings.

    Used to getting my way
    And to my dismay
    You're not the
    Only one
    Who's
    Stubborn
    And conceited too.
    I looked at me
    And I saw you.

    Most deceitful
    To myself
    It's true
    That I'm
    Indignant
    And I'm not so proud
    Of my behavior.

    All in all
    I've learned
    I'm not so tall
    With others
    Being ourselves
    Who we are
    In this big world of us
    Together.

    Thank you!

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
