Usually when I say
"You're not helping matters",
It's probaly me
who's in many tatters.
*
I know you're trying
to be of assistance,
but right now the pressure
is of too much persistance.
*
So don't be insulted
when i brush you away.
It's just that I'm far
too stressed today.
*
I promise that tomorrow
I'll be a better child.
I'll learn to behave
when my life's gone wild.
*
It's not your fault
that your words are in vain.
It's only because
my ears are painted pain.
*
Perhaps in January
I will remember
Your beautiful words
You'd said in Decmber.
*
And the warmth of it all
will set my heart aglow.
And the days zooming past
will stop and slow.
*
And then I'll have the strength
to climb many latters.
And then your kind words
will be helping matters.
