‘Nough Said?

I know that I don’t talk much
And wouldn’t if I could
I say the words I shouldn’t
And don’t, the ones I should.

That’s always been my problem
(you think that I don’t know?)
I always get in trouble
When, I let my feelings show.

Nobody can be honest
Without, paying the price
Sometimes, a good payback
Sometimes, it’s not too nice.

But, the true thing within
Is, what will get you by
It’s not the things outside
That, make you laugh or cry!

Hearts will break, if you let them
If, you give them away
And, life! Will slip right by you
If, you don’t say what, you say!

yes indeed it did bring a smile. I think we have all  gone through this. Biting the tongue sometimes hurts too.  latearrival
