It is what it is.
In the great *** of everyday life,
contexts mix at will.
You never know
whether the interpretation of words and actions
will stand kindly on your side.
And what if the perspective of others
obscures some truth about you?
You produce words,
uselessly explaining why.
Silent, you gain nothing.
Speaking boldly, you often damage relationships
and what you have built with love
over the years.

It is what it is.
In the great *** of everyday life,
contexts mix at will.
You never know
whether the interpretation of words and actions
will stand kindly on your side.
And what if the perspective of others
obscures some truth about you?
You produce words,
uselessly explaining why.
Silent, you gain nothing.
Speaking boldly, you often damage relationships
and what you have built with love
over the years.
