Curtains

Curtains fall 

Amazing, 

How people assume they can mold 

Not a pot but your life  

People believe they have opinions 

A right to coerce the steps in your life choices 

A truth told by someone else 

Isn’t your truth 

People only have ideas  

You may pick up  

No, right just their offers behind the curtains  

It easy for them to mistaken  

And it’s your right to undervalue their opinion 

Not that it counts
