It makes an Ass out of U and Me

when we assume.

Foolish assumptions cause

wicked madness to consume.

Misunderstandings

are sure to bloom.

Conflict will certainly

fill the room.

Unjust Judgements will put

relationships in a tomb.

Making them difficult

to exhume much less resume.

 

So instead, seek the truth.

Don’t listen to the lie.

It’s Satan’s best strategy

to divide you and I.

It’s easy to complain

& replay the “Why?”

Shut ourselves off from the world

and say goodbye.

To sit with Anger, Sorrow, Self-pity,

and cry.

But I love you way too much

to not even try.
