When another, they try to put you DOWN, so SAD, and--LOW
It is a challenge to turn the other cheek, with PEACE--and--DEFEAT, and stay--CALM--COOL--COLLECTVE--with----a----LOVING--COMPASSIONATE--CARING--COURAGEOUS--FORGIVING----HEART---with--POSITIVE----GLOW

When another, they, wrongly, rudely, upset, shun, and--Ruthlessly--DISRESPECT--YOU
At--first--impulse--and--breath--your--human--nature--you-----SEEK------to-----STRIKE----and----PAY--THEM--BACK---immediacy--TOO-

But--im--praying--and--calmly--staying--PEACEFUL--and--FAITHFUL--and--now----very-very-very---quiet--somber--and--alone--and--will--not--act--out--this--very--moment--in--hurt--rage--anger--hate--and--resent--and--SHOUT--in--HASTE
But--yet--deep--deep--deep--within--me--i--hold--my--PEACE--SERENITY--and--LOVE---and--HAVE--FAITH--in--the--GOOD--LORD--ABOVE--and--NOT--a--NEGATIVE--action--back--in--return--am--i--gonna--even--take--the--time--to--WASTE

And--to--MYSELF--i--am--PRAYING--PRAYING--PRAYING--and--PRAYING--that--GOD--will--GUIDE--them--and--BE--with--THEM--LOVINGLY--STAYING--STAYING--STAYING--and--STAYING
Before---and---one---day---coming---when---something---happens---again---as---this----i---WIL---NOT---HOLD--BACK--WORDS--ACTIONS--EMOTIONS--FEELINGS--------and--cause--in--another---BACK--THEM--in--PAYING
