When I feel--GREAT-STRESS--I, get a cough, and COLDS
now, seems to be the common, fact, more often as I'm getting--kinda--OLD
When others treat me, mean, selfish, ungrateful, and--COLD
i fight back, and keep it all to myself, inside, Because I want to erupt and blow up, on--them--strong,upfront, in there face--DIRECT--and--MARINE--BOLD
But, I suck it up, and I stay silent--without shout and demanding, damaging--voice--and--SWALLOW--MY--PRIDE
as I'm thinking, and writing, and--coughing--as-I'm, on another change of station--Greyhound-BUS--RIDE
So for me, when I do not, BOLDLY, voice, just in fact and exact--what--I--FEEL
inside, with swallowed-pride, I hurt myself--a--GREAT--DEAL
For-a--MARINE--they--have--no-time-to-PLAY-GAMES
especially--WHEN--THEIR--life-is-on-the-line--the--SAMEs
So for me, I say, and I know to myself, at least I did not damage, and cut, and--BLOW-UP--with, temper to , no one
They may think things are still warm fuzzy and bright and alright with beautiful--SUN
But as IT--is,-- I sucked it up, shut it down and up, and--SWALLOWED--MY--MARINE--P-R-I-D-E
so, I will just be Happy, when I'm a done--coughing on this--Bus--RIDE
