I Wouldn't Say That Too Loudly
When I ask you how you are doing,
Can you respond by telling me 'how' you are?
Instead of discussing what you've written,
All the time?
'Do I say anything at all...
When you show me picture after picture,
Of your children...
Growing from day to day? '
That is not the same thing?
'Oh?
I wouldn't say that too loudly
You've already hurt 'my' feelings!
I'm glad I decided to leave my 'kids' at home.'
