A BETTER CHOICE

 

I walked into the room . . .

The reaction was as cold as a tomb –

“You never hear a word I say,

And you always want things your way!”

“You have lost your mind,” In my defense

You are always straddling the fence!

Things are not always black and white,

And why do you have the need to be right?

Men just look at things differently –

So why can’t you women just let it be?

“No there is not an answer to everything!”

Accept reality and don’t always complain!

“I know,” you just want to be heard,

But you see men can’t find the right word!

It’s okay – I’m sorry I raise my voice!

I love you too – yes, that’s a better choice.
