Not My Problem To Correct Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Not My Problem To Correct



If I remain honest with myself,
To express it candidly or not...
And sometimes with an emotional depth.
I do not with intention attempt to offend.
That kind of rejection is not my problem to correct.
Nor do I seek an approval to be accepted.
Rejection I expect with no regrets left.

I will remain honest to myself to address it.
And if my truth is recognized for what it is,
The knowing of that validates I am not alone.
Even though the feeling of it I may experience,
When confronted by someone's ignorance I condone.
With a knowing I do not have to exchange it to be shown.
I have grown too old for petty tit for tats or empty chit chats.

remaining honest always with one's own life and realizing truth of life should be the goal, thanks.
