Giving in may, <br />Not be a benefit. <br />Giving in may, <br />Just be an excuse to quit. <br />Giving in may, <br />Not be the end of it <br />If, <br />What is done to another is offensive. <br /> <br />Giving in may, <br />Not be a benefit. <br />Giving in may, <br />Just be an excuse to quit. <br />And giving in may, <br />Not be the end of it. <br />If, <br />What is done to another is offensive. <br /> <br />Saying what is wrong to one, <br />May not be the right thing. <br />Especially if the other is a lover. <br />Who believes what is done, <br />Is okay and approved. <br />With an acceptance expected, <br />To be received as cool. <br /> <br />Giving in may, <br />Not be a benefit. <br />Giving in may, <br />Just be an excuse to quit. <br />And giving in may, <br />Not be the end of it. <br />If, <br />What is done is offensive. <br />And it is said and admitted. <br /> <br />Giving in may, <br />Not be a benefit. <br />Giving in may, <br />Just be an excuse to quit. <br />Giving in may, <br />Not be the end of it. <br />If, <br />What is done is offensive. <br />And an argument begins, <br />That is unended.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
