Why Does It Have To Be?
That communication is
Sometimes not the key?
Only if I want to hear it,
Then I will respond back to you.
Or better, if I don't like it
I'll rant about it to everyone I know.
Why does it have to be?
It is surprising how an opinion or comment
Could affect one person,
Not everyone, but just someone.
But nowadays in the new millennium
Simple words are spoken
And are sometimes ignored
Why does it have to be?
Outrageous actions can get
Immediate attention,
However, a soft-spoken voice
Is most-likely pushed aside
Speak up so you can be heard!
Maybe it will get attention too.
Does it have to be?
Let it be between you and me
Not the friend, not the family member
But just you and me.
Not a monologue but a dialogue.
Let's try to fix this or
Would you rather turn away again?
Why does it have to be?
I mean, it's your choice
If you want to express yourself
Go right ahead. What's the issue?
However, if you want to leave
I will respect your decision
And I won't stop you.
So what will it be?
