When you are out
and you were
expecting one thing
but someone else happens
When you thought you were
doing fine
until someone
gives you advice
you didn’t ask for
When you can’t express
in time
in the right words
what you want the other person to hear
what they should hear
since they made such an assumption
on something they didn’t even need to think about
Something you didn’t realise they were thinking
until they chose to offend you
Accidentally of course
It is the first time that
I feel
that what I am doing is enough
for me
and not for others
not for society
not for my context
And I have never cared less
I find this liberating
I find this isolating
I suppose it’s because
it’s new
