“Have courage for the
great sorrows of life and
patience for the small ones;
and when you have laboriously
accomplished your daily task,
go to sleep in peace.
God is awake.”

Poem:
.
whatever did I do
I thought I was being nice to you
maybe you didn’t hear me right
I’m supposed to be your white knight
was it my tone of voice or the words I used
for whatever reason I am confused
please tell me what am I supposed to do
I will do anything that I must go through
don’t know what I did so I can’t say that I’m sorry
I’m chasing big game emotions like I was on a safari
to play your guessing game I am requesting a hint
maybe it’s something that rhymes with peppermint
could be that I forgot to take out the trash
we needed milk, I forgot to leave you the cash
did I strand the kids at the soccer field
I quit, too many landmines on this battlefield
she confessed there was no reason for her blowup
for her the best part was to kiss and make up
