don't

don't...
don't come at me with your overwhelming need
to save me...
don't allow your self serving audacity convince you
it's ok for you to tell me my way is wrong...
the way i live my life, pray to my God, the way i love
hold back your desire to convince me to cross over to your way...
please
live and let live...
i'm cool with conversations, you know,
those peaceful back and forth exchanges of thoughts and ideas...
the kind of talks in which we respect one another's differences...
and enjoy sharing those differences...
but, leave your agendas out...
i don't care to be convinced
and i won't be.
