Strong Enough Not To Express Their Frustrations

Explaining themselves with a host of excuses.
Says many things about people like this.
And the one thing that stands out clearly,
Is a wish they believe is kept secret...
To have their insecurities accepted.
With a protecting no one neglects of this.

These people are always demanding,
Understanding.
With a hope...
That someone will come along,
To allow themselves to be openly disrespected.

While comprehending in a patience understood,
They are the ones...
Strong enough not to express their frustrations.
Soley for the purpose to have others dump theirs.
Making the act of this help the dumpers feel good.
