“Just because you have tasted a piece of a pie, does not mean you’ve obtained the full ingredients of the treat.” - ©Emrys 2023
There is nothing more distasteful than, meeting new people who think they already know you:
People are starting
To push me away
More and more
Everyday
Making assumptions
Speculating
Rather than
Personally communicating
About a life,
They know not, of.
Only
What they think they see
Have falsy, inappropriately heard
Or
Told to believe
Irritating
Attempts to bring
Up
Things that carry no relevance
In my life
Tryna tell me
to heal
Things I've done, healed
Decades ago
As if
They "Know"
Broken records
With no ground
Just a story
Smoke and mirrors
Hitting the ground
Ingenuine
Exploiting
Illusions.
If one truly wants to know
They’ll understand
The proper approach.

In theory:
Imagine stubbing your toe or breaking your foot and being in pain. Maybe all the other plethora of life events we may possibly go through in our day to day. Sheesh! So many things can occur In one day that can cause stress, irritability, etc. However, those who claim to support you merely speculate that you must be stressed do to some type of trauma you went through many years ago. One must pose the true question, “Do you tell a person what you think they are going through or do you ask them, how was as your day”
“Wisdom is knowing, you do not know unless you make it your prerogative to care.” -©Emrys 2023
To approach someone with preconceived notions is to say you put more time and effort into others projections than you do about entering that persons life through a blank canvas. That alone speaks the loudest volumes, that it screeches.
Do not dangle a carrot in front of someone with high caliber. For, that carrot will lay waste to rot.
When it comes to friendships, relationships etc. You either want to be in that persons life or you don't. You either want them to know how you feel or you don't. You either want to help them or you don't.
Placing stipulations on someone is toxic no matter what way anyone looks at it.
