Choose carefully my dear
For your place in the world
Once taken doesn't change
For change is hard
The mind, the souls across you
Would never quite know how to
Would you do otherwise?
It’s not so easy my love
It’s not so simple
To change their minds
It happens
Yes
But first you would have to fight
Only if you think it’s worth my darling
For not in those minds
There would be one of yours
For if your teary my child
My precious
Each smile would be seen
Each whoop pondered upon
Would you think her mad?
And yet
It’s not just they
They, who don’t choose to laugh
For in this wide stage that bears you sweetheart
A jester would always be a jester….
