• sometimes i look at myself in the mirror, and i don't like what i see.

    maybe if i frown less and smile more,
    i would be more friendly and less rude.

    maybe if i take less and give more,
    i would be more kind and less cruel.

    maybe if i demand less and plead more,
    i would be more humble and less selfish.

    maybe if i fly less and land more,
    i would be more reliable and less irresponsible.

    maybe if i talk less and listen more,
    i would be more understanding and less bold.

    maybe if i reject less and accept more,
    i would be more open and less closed.

    maybe if i sigh less and breathe more,
    i would be more loose and less rigid.

    maybe if i brood less and socialize more,
    i would be more popular and less isolated.

    maybe if i hate less and forgive more,
    i would be more loving and less cold.

    maybe if i talk less and nod more,
    i would be more polite and less rude.

    maybe...

    but maybe if i become less and pretend to be more,
    i would be more lie and less truth.

    maybe this is who i am. no more. no less.

    simply THERESA. no more. no less.
