Next Time Think...

By silentspeaker

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You take what we say to hurt you. But then when you say something that really hurts us, You ask why we care about it. You ask for our opinions on you, And then you get mad when we tell you what we think. We don't even ask you. And you speak your opinion about us no matter what. You just say what comes to mind. Even if it is hurtful to us. That makes me mad. How you can conceivably be that sensitive, And yet when you hurt us, you don't seem to care. What you said really hurt me. But you didn't seem to notice, All you cared about was how much we hurt you. When you asked our opinions, we told you what we thought, Then I say one thing. And you come back at me with a mean remark. So no matter what you say, I'm not going to let it bug me any more. I know what I think, and I know it hurts you sometimes. But I don't mean it to hurt you. It is something that would not hurt most people. It is just a little something that doesn't matter in life. But what you said, just came to your mind. So all I'm asking is next time think before you talk... Written February 13th, 2002 © on Feb 13 2002 10:43 AM PST   10 • 0 • 12
