Shut the Door

You are not the reason I am lacking nights of sleep It's not your fault I toss and turn, And on my pillow that I weep. Do you think it actually matters That you are mostly using me I really could care less And this you can believe. I've always tried to be there To listen my dear friend, But when I need to talk to you You don't have time to spend. I know you are the center Of your mini universe, The most important person in your life Is you...you must come first. So if you think it's you That I've been longing for Turn off that bright bright light, And as you're leaving shut the door. Lynn Barany

I think we all know people who are this way. I have a couple that could slam the door because they are really into themselves. Love Phyl
