You Don'T Understand Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You made the choice to stay in one spot,
To complain what it is you have or have not.
And no matter who has done or said what to you,
Why do you continue to give power to it?
And what difference are you proving to make,
By remaining to blame someone else?

'You don't understand! '

You are right.
I have made a decision to live my own life.
And with mistakes, blemishes and flaws,
None of my time you will get to ruin or waste...
To understand why you have taken your life,
As an excuse not to live it.
