Push and Pull

She pushed us away

But our friends caught us

into their web of love.

As she said beautiful praises,

she cut us off with her sharp tongue,

"You are not welcome here."

We have no choice but to move on,

to carry on with our tiring journey.

We will rest when we find a home-

away from her and her confused state of mind.

She stresses and tells us she is no spring chicken-

as if it is youth and her actions that take us to her.

Support and love does not discriminate with age,

but it does with the state of your heart-

one that is closed, pushes away-

one that is opened, brings people in closer.

Unify and build lives together,

life is too short,

but you already know that because

I'm afraid you are already dead.
