Don'T Ask

Dont ask for the truth
If you dont want to believe it

Dont ask for my advice
If you refuse to heed it

Dont ask for my opinion
If you dont want to hear it

Dont ask for my heart
If you dont really mean it

Insightful piece, Raquel. Isn't it infuriating when people ask for things they don't want!
