Bad Behavior

Good To bad and bad to worse.

A learned behavior that's quite rehearsed.

Then bad behavior becomes reversed,

if just one circumstance can change a verse.

With terms enhancements we make small advancements.

We earned our badges and found retrenchments.

In crowded rooms I felt enchantments,

from troubled souls I built attachments,

through familiar goals we found excitement.

I found my voice when I was silent.

Siting out our own indictments.

A final notice that kept me grounded,

let loose the truths that were impounded.

These tragic stories which we became,

so relatable but not the same.

realizing it was ourselves to blame,

but all resulted in behaviors changed.
