This poem is looking beyond what difficult people are such as those in a check out lane that become really annoying, it is looking inside at everyday life. We can all be difficult whether it be with a friend or spouse..

All people can be difficult
Each and every day
Although no one likes to admit it
We all want our own little way

We can all act like children
Who taught the temper tantrums to them
In an argument
Angers seething
Boiling at the brim

Words fly out
You wanna win
Listen to me
Let me explain again

No giving in
No letting go
To get your point across
A drama show

You can’t be wrong
You have to be right
Your mind won’t let go
Your gonna fight

If you lose
You begin to complain
A sore loser
Why take the blame

You’ve lost the fight
Your in a bad mood
You can’t help yourself
Now you’ve become rude

Your too difficult to be around
Causing everyone hell
Making them frown

It goes on and on
Until you wake up the next day
You’ve forgiven your spouse
And everything’s okay

    Great observation, excellent rhyme. What you describe is all around us. I’m the only one I know who doesn’t apply. lol (However, if I hadn’t been the first to comment, I just wasn’t going to comment at all.)

    I encounter and face with difficult people quite a lot of time too in my life. I suppose not to give in to them by being silent is the best way to go about it..

    Good job. I know I’m difficult at times, but I really try to take it easy on sales people.
    Thanks,

    Everyone has their bad days, I always try my best though.

    Thanks for commenting everyone,I always appreciate them and enjoy reading them.I like to touch on subjects that don’t get written about a whole lot.

    Actually, unlike Stumbleupon, I have become LESS VOCAL..and just let things go….life is too short.

    Forgive AND FORGET… You are a wonderful writer..always look forward to seeing what comes next…..

    ~peace~
