Must I walk on eggshells <br />Be carefull what I say <br />Just be sweet <br />Avoid the heat <br />And hold the hounds at bay; <br /> <br />Keep my thoughts within me <br />Avoid a nasty scene <br />Zip my lip <br />Or let it rip <br />But try not to be mean; <br /> <br />You're asking quite a favor <br />Not sure I can comply <br />I won't be shushed <br />My buttons pushed <br />I cannot tell a lie; <br /> <br />I will not walk on eggshells <br />I have a perfect right <br />To spill my guts <br />I may be nuts <br />But I don't want to fight; <br /> <br />So let's just call a truce here <br />Agree to disagree <br />I love you still <br />I always will <br />But please, let me be me.<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/walking-on-eggshells-2/
