yes, i'm short, and i know you can touch the sky while i can't. why have you never offered me a seat on your shoulders, though? yes, i'm short, however, i could do without you reminding me that nobody wants to draw the short straw. yes, i'm short, but that doesn't mean you should absorb all of the sun as i shrivel up in your shadow. yes, i'm short, yet i still like to feel like i am not.
