Step lightly, be careful not to break the shell
I wouldn’t want to crush your feelings
All is not well that doesn’t end well
Emotions are often sent reeling
Speak softly, never rough nor crude
Quiet, calming, the words must be
Or, surely, I’ll be considered rude
And you’ll go running for sympathy
Wait, before you spew more slander
Exactly what is it that we don’t agree?
Stop wasting time on pure propaganda
Perhaps the problem isn’t really me…..

I’d hate to be on the receiving end! Crushing, yet you sound like the one with control — there’s power there. I love the title, too.

It’s a situation I’d prefer to walk away from. I suppose that gives me the power 🙂 Thank you!

Right now it fits a few. But they won’t see themselves in it. They’ll think it’s about someone else lol
