I am..
Am I a true friend if I confront and tell her what should be told
Or if I tell her “take your time honey, I’ll hold ”
Am I her true friend when I close my eyes ,
When what she treads on is thin ice?
Am I a true friend when all I can take is her smile
And let myself be beguiled?
My friend is my friend.
Truth be told
For fear of a heartbreak I can’t be bold.
Am I a good parent when I put my foot down
And not follow up later, only to frown
Am I a bad parent when I ignore
“I don’t like you Mom, you’re such bore”
A parent is a parent truth be told,
Sometimes it tends to get cold.
Am I a bad spouse, if I dread the weekend
And whine relentlessly when he hasn’t the time to spend?
Am I a bad spouse if I bellow?
Endlessly about him being mellow
I think it’s apparent
Truth be told
My husband deserves a medal of Gold.
This is the way it is
I’m sure they agree
They haven’t run away, or tried to break free,
My friend, my child and my husband
Are definitions of me .
