If you don’t like me
Don’t invite me.
If you misunderstand me
Let my words defend me.
If we disagree
Give me honesty.
If I fail to be loud
Be the first one to shout.
If you can’t stand me
Don’t pretend you can.
If I don’t act wise
Don’t tell me otherwise.
If I make a mistake
Show me what’s at stake.
But if trust is broken
No words to be spoken…
Nothing to be done…
I’d better be gone.
