Nobody’s perfect

Caring dove


Notice of absence from Caring dove
Please can I talk to you …

Sometimes people do things that upset others 

we feel like they’ve upset us 

and / or are being unfair 

and we sometimes react 

repeating things that we have said before 

why ? 
I don’t even know why 

 

but nobody’s perfect 

sometimes people do things that upset others 

but nobody’s perfect 

their not perfect 

and nor am I 

 

sometimes we get ‘ triggered ‘ also 

by things 

people 

and we can get insecure 

maybe come across as repeating ourselves 

doesn’t make us annoying 

doesn’t mean we’re being unkind 

we’re reacting that way for a reason 

and maybe sometimes 

we don’t even know or understand our own reactions to things 

sometimes we struggle to understand ourselves 

 

sometimes we just want to be acknowledged 

talked to 

for that person to say hello 

instead we’re avoided ignored 

but we just want them to say hello 

but for some reason they won’t 

and maybe that’s more to do with them , not us 

 

it isn’t our fault if someone won’t acknowledge us 

talk to us 

say something 

It isn’t our fault 

 

their not perfect 

and I’m not either

    A poem that speaks on misunderstandings and consequences. A lovely telling of how people through fear and insecurity send messages that lead to rejection. Well told

    • Caring dove

      Thankyou )) yeah , it’s about a situation with someone ., they did something that upset me then I have reacted to that .. but I can’t even talk to this person anymore .. so yeah , their behaviour upset me then I have reacted .. then I got blocked and ignored .

      It’s normal to react when we get upset by someone ms behaviour and even to get insecure sometimes

      Thankyou very much

      If we were perfect we would have nothing for which to aim for in our lives Yellow Rose.

      Misunderstandings can have consequences, we all experience this in life at some stage, but as you rightly say, none of us are perfect, a lovely and well expressed write

      Correct, nobody is perfect, my friend. I wish some people would realize that and show a little grace. A well-written and true poem. 🌹👏
