Bite My Tongue-N-Cheek

You shouldn’t ‘ve said that, bite your tongue You said I look old, but you know I’m still young If ever a wiz a wiz there is ?? I’ll bite my tongue and feel its fizz You said I look fat, or something like that and that I’m a tired, bitter ol bat You know I’m a sweet young dainty thing I’m the morning glow you find in Spring You say that I’m just a crabby shrew Bite your tongue and shame on you! You know I display no angst or drama I have the kindly aura of the Dhali Lama You said I can’t write worth a dam I never said I could but now and then get in a slam! You call me an egotist, a narcissistic freak You must know my words have been tongue-n-cheek? You shouldn’t ‘ve said that, bite your tongue before you shoot hurtful words for fun My tongue is bigger as you can see I’ll pull its trigger like a gun then flee I may be too tall and you an elf It’s on the tip of my tongue… All that’s said reflects yourself In the end, the only thing that counts If there’s any love in you, any ounce We’ll bite our tongues and forgive the fuss, which drains the light from all of us It’s written in quotes, psalms and clichés Never your innate decency betray Follow your own worthy words search within and find someway
