Do not join the crowd
That indulges in meaningless chatter
Stay where you are valued
And your opinions also matter
You don’t need to bend backwards
To please one and all
For if you lean back too much
You are definitely bound to fall
So if you respect yourself
And walk with head held high
Gossip will not matter
For it’s a half-baked pie
Walk out of relationships
Where you are the only giver
For one hand can’t clap alone
You also need to be the receiver..
Stay where you are loved
Stay where you are needed
Stay where people respect you
And your words are always heeded
