Too Sensitive

Don't let your foolish pride
get in the way today
Take your lessons in stride
No whimpering away
don't say that really hurt
all will know you are a wimp
time to tuck in your shirt
Don't you walk with a limp

Don't let a dumb sad song
Make you shed even one tear
We just knew it all along
You are too soft, my dear

Put mask on, voice steady
Prep your witticism
Don't talk unless ready
to face criticism
while you laugh it all away
You are only lazy in bed
if you cannot face the day
Only secretly dead
