Giving a Shit - - Update) NAPO ALONE 29
She laughed from a distance
Up close, she was actually crying
Close up, she had something in her eye
At a distance, she definitely winked at me
From a distance, she smiled a sexy smile
Up close she was wincing in pain
From a distance, she laughed a real belly laugh
Up close she was simply screaming
From a distance, she swooned as she always did
Up close she’d dropped down dead
From a distance, she looked just fine to me
Up close she was broken hearted
From a distance is usually the best policy
Up close I would have had to give a shit

It always looks different from the outside and distanced from reality. That's why it's always best to treat people with compassion. Never know what they're going through. Good write, my friend. I'm gonna listen to it when I'm out of the office and have no distractions. :-)
