Except it's not because I just realized I forgot to write with refrains but I'm not rewriting the whole thing so fuck it this is a new version of that form

The Unassertive

I have found much
In the way I've been
Seems the #key to my heart
's now frayed and thin

From what you say
And what I hear
Now's a good time
T' give in to fear

So give me reason
A sharpened spear
Prod me forward
If your assertion's clear

"Bringing the raw to the silent pain is unassertive healing. I am for the souls who desire non-verbal safety in my arms. Eyes that see when the loud has arrived to make the brain go zap. Hands that soothe without the grasping. Love free of judgment. I'll breathe for you when you can't."

No one with standing to challenge, I think, except Congress. The folks who wrote the Anti-Deficiency Act and the Impoundment Act did not think about this level of corrupt and unassertive Congress.

Many times I've blushed
stuttered
shrunk into my shell
it's not easy being shy
facing my fears of
other people
speaking to a crowd
imposing myself
at a party on my own
having to integrate
with people unknown

I’m unassertive
But in pubs I’ll still order
Everyone around

Me
#emoetry

You cried that day
You tagged along
To my work
I never wanted
You to see
How #unassertive
I made myself
Belittled and bullied
Laughed at
Dumped on
Stuck in all the roles
No one else wanted
I tried to assure you
That I didn't
Take it to heart
But you knew
You saw it
Every day
After that

I win every argument.
In my head.
Days after they have ended.

Quietly, I weep
Unassertive and meek
Alone I pray for the
Attention I seek
Not changing a thing
As I’m feeling too weak

Why would they say that
About me, from the other room
Do they think I can’t hear
They’re yelling over the vacuum

I don’t think I inject myself
How am I being insertive
Then the vacuum shuts off
Oh, they said unassertive

She was meek,
#unassertive
So they took from her.

She did nothing
To deserve it
And they took from her.

She still smiled
Not to break
As they took from her.

She had nothing
Left to take
Still they took from her.

A wounded frost envelopes
my martian soul.
The chill is a black hole.
Though unassertive,
I fight back
with fingerprints staining
my lips.
Millions of words surround me
and I swear
they all resemble
a flame
I thought I left behind.

Unassertive:
Adjective
A word not
Frequently used
To describe
This wild
Existence
Known as
Sunny Bunnies
Do we dare
Turn it down

a breakdown of my immutable alchemy

taking laundry from the washer
i noticed aprons twisted in a tangled mass
capturing dinner napkins too
slips, half hitches, bowlines and cloves
my mind wanders an unassertive weave
into the many taut ways i can ignore
what binds me humane and home #emoetry

My younger self
#unassertive
never questioning
hamstrung
under her thumb
I pity that young girl
but she was just
harvesting her power
to break free

Leaf blown #unassertive in a breeze
The wild chill knocking at our knees,
Is begging for a warm jacket.
Instead I grab the locket
With hangs about my neck.
It’s feel makes me a wreck-

Memories of warmth return
And leave our leaves to burn

Dodging
All The
Industrious
Souls
who seem to
Direct
The masses
Issuing
Commands
Telling everyone
To do this
Or that
Which way
To go
And how
To behave
No need
For that
For unassertive
Folk who only
Want to be
Left alone
And have
Simple dreams
Of anarchy
