If the Shoe Fits
You read or hear some words and think
“That isn’t very flattering;”
But then your heart is on the brink
Of pittering and pattering.
For possibly, those sentiments
Contain a little clue
That give you just the slightest sense
They might apply to you.
Perhaps you’re being paranoid
Or worried without cause;
It’s easier to just avoid
Those words with fangs and claws.
But sometimes you just have to shrug
And flash a grin and bear it,
‘Cause even if it’s kinda snug,
If that shoe fits – then wear it!
