We were friends…brothers and sisters, you might say
Always getting along and sharing everything we had between us
All the dreams and aspirations we spoke about, growing up

The love and respect
All is gone now
All because of that different voice you use to rise at me, when speaking to me

I agree we disagreed
But couldn’t find an amicable way of us agreeing to disagree
…without having to intimidate me

I see you’re after my life now
Sending me all these death threats
And the booby-traps you keep on setting for me, to fall right into

As it stands now, we are past the stage of reconciliation
And making amends for the damage done
Probably because of the scars, seen and unseen that you’ve left on my body

It’s no wonder that I look around me and all I see, is lifelessness
From all these displays of aggression and intimidation…

Then, I WONDER….WHAT HAPPENED TO persuading me AND NOT threatening me?
This is a pretty intense post. The way we communicate is so important and a path to better understanding each other. Too bad that with all the social media and tools of communication we have lost the ability to truly communicate. There is so much anger around us. Finding peace within our hearts is even more important now.
Hhhhhmmmmmm…you’ve said it all, Dagmara. Thank you for sharing and appreciating.
Beautiful! really nicely written post and good pictures to illustrate ?
Thank you for appreciating, Josh
Oh My,I’m very much taken up by this piece of writing because it says so much about how much anger has eaten up society (ies).how about if we make amends by sharing what we have with others,forgiving without thinking twice and so on…thanks @Edgar..
Oh my,I’m very much taken up by this piece of information.How about if we make amends through sharing what we have with others,forgiving easily without thinking twice about doing it or not.I think this would change so many people’s attitudes and destroy the anger that fills their souls. .thanks Edgar.
Beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing, Teddy.
Powerful, so much said in these strong words, cathartic
👏🏿👏🏿👍👍
It seems like a sign of the times that people can’t seem to agree on much. I don’t know why some people are so aggressive and intent on intimidating others. It only leads to more agression and no one wins when that happens.
😩😩😩
I really like this post too! Our world is changing and it scares me. I hope our kids will figure out it and change it for the better.
✊🏿✊🏿 hopefully!
Very well-written article. What if everyone agrees to the things that they disagree with? What if everyone shows love instead of hate and anger. Our world has a lot of disagreements, hate, and anger, and if all the people in this world change we will definitely have a better world.

This seems to happen way too often nowadays. How many friendships have been destroyed because of differences in opinions, beliefs, and political views? I wish we all learn to be kinder and more careful with our words and actions towards one another.

Communication is such an important tool and we definitely need to learn to use it better.
👍👍👏🏿👏🏿
It’s definitely a sign of the times that we’re unable to agree or let differences lie. I’ve seen it more and more lately, especially with this pandemic going on.
😩😩😩
This is powerful and you have such a way with words. It was really thought provoking!
👏🏿👏🏿👍👍 thank you for appreciating.
This a great topic! it’s been interesting to see how people go out at it during discussions with recent events the past couple of years. Theres a disconnect in communication and listening to others lately.
😩😩😩
