Whose discomfort?

a poem

People who center their own emotions, of shame, of despair, of guilt, of anger, of depression, when they are the ones who have harmed you are not truly apologizing with the intention to change.

They are adding to your burden for asking them to consider behaving differently, and costing you emotional labour to soothe their own discomfort.
