Firmly

P Nguyenkhoa on 35photo.pro

That I needed
support
wasn't because
I fumbled.
But simply that
I was being firm.
You offered
something else
and it didn't
annoy me.
Only it amused
to see you 
falter
and fluster
at your inability
to pull on.
So be it.
I have my life
and it has its own ways.
I will take it up
and take to it
and sometimes
take it on too.
