The patient ones are those who tend to love the most
Because they would choose to be a sucker
Just to see their relationships grow in light
Possibly a skill they’ve been able to develop over time
Based on their past relationship
experiences
As a control mechanism
Most times, they say to themselves
“It’s not worth my energy, I refuse to be stressed”
So they tend to be in agreement by silence
With the other
party's opinion
Just to let the
sleeping dog lie
They’ll rather choose to bottle up, contained like
a wine
When they could react to it and have peace of
mind
Instead, they’ll choose to get heated up within
Which is the real stress in every “ally” you can think of
Rather than gush forth like a blocked fountain
They tend to smile a lot, a perfect tactic to hide their
true feelings
While saying to the few concerned people in their circle
Who cares enough to ask about their well-being, “I’m very
fine”
They can be likened to the double-face agent
But to be honest, it’s not like they derive joy in it, at
least not all
Just that, it’s their own self-developed coping mechanism
To be a “sacrificial lamb” when need be
Just to bring peace
to the table
But my greatest concern is when they reach a certain
threshold
Where the elastic can no longer be stretched, and they
start reacting out
At this point, they no longer spring up like fountains, they
erupt like a volcano
Oh! Grace be with you if you’re so unlucky to witness that
Do well not to judge them by it
Because, that heavy outpour
you just witnessed
Was a piled-up, and well-compressed emotion
That was 'managed to be hidden' for the sake of peace
