Not Sitting Well
Certain foods you used to love
Don’t sit well any more.
Our stomachs can’t digest, with ease,
Some things they did before.
So it is best avoiding them
And sticking with each meal
Or snack which to your taste buds
And digestive tract appeal.
The same applies to friendships.
Some relationships, once good,
No longer make us feel the way
You’d hope a friendship would.
Eliminating foods or friends
Means that much less to choose
But if we love what we have left
We don’t have much to lose.
