Emotional Tangle

I usually stay in silence,
Just letting whatever go.
Please, don't misunderstand,
I'll still speak truth in what I know.
But, it's when I get fired up,
When my gaskets about to blow.
That's when I get passionate,
Making a stand in words that flow.
I'm usually pretty laid back,
Until a fit inside me grows.
I'm usually making jokes,
To make time easier here below.
What I can't take is when,
Someone is spiteful and it shows.
Thinking they were supposed to be genuine,
A silent deception they undergo.
What's sad is thats what it was like living with my ex,
Not far enough ago.
Dealing with someone lacking integrity,
With no lead of example to follow.
I forgive like I'm supposed to,
Cause God forgives me "fo sho".
But, this behavior I never expect,
Renders me incapable of the ability to glow.
I will never be able to live with anyone else,
I see that now pretty thorough.
I can't stay unhappy the rest of my days,
Dealing with purposefully inflicted sorrow.
