while I think I'm not
it's that all the little things
I really care about
I defend
when I think I'm right
and I try to prove
the good advice
they say....
To strangers it's once
to loved ones it's a nag a lot
but i can't just a blind eye
and let them hurt a lot
they say....
I thought I was enlightening them
but they did not
my well wishes down the drain
an outcome I never thought
they say....
this was what I was
a few days back
now i try to bother less
hope this works out
they say....
my intent they say
how long can they last
oh mamma! my kids they laugh about
it'll just remain an afterthought
