they said
be careful
don’t get hurt
you didn’t listen
they said
it’s too risky
you’ll be sorry
you didn’t listen
they said
things they didn’t even believe
to keep you close, keep you in place, “don’t leave”
you didn’t listen then
and you still won’t now
so let them say
what they will
and you keep being you
(D James)
