[ Validation Is Almost An Impossible Thing To
     Seek ]
[ You Think That Most Of The Time You Come To Have 
     Some Regrets After You Speak ]

[ No One Acknowledges What You Say ]
[ All Through The Night ]
[ & All Throughout The Day ]

[ You Do Not Understand Why You Are So Ignored ]
[ When You Say Something ]
[ Do You Make Others That Bored? ]

[ It Is Always Other People’s Choice ]
[ That They Won’t Respond To Your Voice ]

[ But Then Frustration Ping Pongs Around In Your Head ]
[ When She Says Your Words Back, Verbatim, What You Just Said ]

[ You Wish That She Had Never Heard ]
[ A Single Word ]

[ Then Others Could Use ]
[ That Excuse ]
[ So You Guess You Will Sit There & Smile ]
[ & Continue To Take The Abuse ]
