TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT

TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT I may be thought aloof and cold Maybe even more so, as I’m old Not dull lead, nor yet shiny gold Perhaps a weird sense of humour Yet all along, it may be a tumour If unsure, I will never just leave it I’m well educated, that’s for sure On this, never challenged before Perhaps I was ever seeking more But knowledge, it’s not all by far Self confidence, not being a star I aimed high and I did achieve it I feel love, some may say muted But to superficial I am less suited As in depths, my mind is rooted Yet I will still look for inspiration As life offers so little explanation Me, lovable, I’d hardly believe it
