accepting

someone said i am the accepting type

it’s better to be quiet

and stare at the tiles

agreeing with what they said

than to challenge them with heated words

to tell them things you didn’t mean

to be angry, and lose it before

the glass hits the floor

i’m good like that

accepting my fate

going with the flow

there’s nothing i hate

more than going up against the stream

and then ended up dying where i started.
