Eyes Tightly Closed

I find it hard to say no Not because I'm weak When someone feels uncertain, And a listening ear doth seek I listen carefully to everything they say. And try to give the best advice, To help their worries fade away. I feel honoured that they trust me, To confide in me for sure, I worry they see weakness, And think I am a pushover what's more. Have I had my eyes closed Or choose not to see I now have the feeling Some have tried to make a monkey out of me. This awakening causes me concern, It puts me in a different state of mind. I know it's not a weakness. It should be normal to be kind.
