Defend...

Defend

I get so tired of always having to defend my son

To people whose hearts should automatically be won.

I want to scream and cry but it will be to no avail

For these people will never admit that they fail

How can anyone be so cruel to a little boy of four?

He can't compete with his cousin who means so much more.

I quit, I'm done, and they've failed in more ways than one.

My disappointment runs high with people who always shun.

What am I supposed to tell him when he asks why noone cares?

Am I supposed to tell him these people are too selfish to share?

They're the ones missing out on my special little boy.

Only they will be remiss to share in his joy.

I really want to tell them just to get lost and stay away.

My son deserves relatives who love him everyday.

Silly Girl....

Silly Girl

I'm not the silly girl that I used to be.

I'm just ordinary and I want to be me.

Accept me as I am, or don't accept me at all.

I can't waste my time on people who make me feel small.

I'm not at all famous, and I'm certainly not rich.

Quite frankly, I'm sure some would call me a witch.

Life is too short to waste on such trash.

Especially people with whom I clash.

If you think you're a diva, a princess, or a star.

I don't want to be around you, no matter who you are.

You can think you're important all that you want.

But really maybe a mirror is what you should haunt.

Money and fashion don't make the person one bit.

You can't put food on the table with your looks or your wit.

I'm really very tired of the hypocrites of today.

They're just too stupid to see how their comments weigh.

So, if you want to be in my life, if at all for a minute.

Be there consistently or don't bother being in it.
