When you say nothing at all…

I might not be the best daughter
I don’t listen to you all the time,
I get angry, I get cranky;
Punish me as much as you want,
But don’t be quiet
Coz 'apart' my world falls;
When you say nothing at all..

I am the not best sister;
I don’t get your perspectives every time,
Your wishes, I don’t always grant;    
Fight with me as much as you want,
But don’t be quiet
Coz 'apart' my world falls;
When you say nothing at all..

I can’t be called the best friend you’ve ever had;
I don’t call you often and I know it makes you mad,
Shriek at me as much as you want,
But don’t be quiet
Coz 'apart' my world falls;
When you say nothing at all..

I am not the best girlfriend one can have,
When you praise other women, jealousy pangs I have
Don’t buy me gifts my next birthday and yell at me as much as you want,
But don’t be quiet
Coz 'apart' my world falls;
When you say nothing at all..

I have not been my best as a wife,
You come home to a messy house at times,
While my shopping bills give you sleepless nights,
Scream at me as much as you want,
But don’t be quiet
Coz 'apart' my world falls;
When you say nothing at all..

I try hard but I am not the best mother,
I don’t always give you enough time and that makes me bother,
I push you to try harder coz this world I want you to conquer,
Fight with me in your childish ways,
But don’t be quiet
Coz 'apart' my world falls;
When you say nothing at all..

My People, My World,
Whenever I give you nightmares,
Scream, shout and fight out aloud,
But don’t be quiet
Coz 'apart' my world falls;
When you say nothing at all..

  2. I read somewhere that, "Its not the words of your enemies that hurt you the most, rather it's the silence of your friends”.
    You've put that essence so rightly here. Kudos.
