Stretched in Two

Sometimes you get stretched in two

And, though you do what you must do,

You know there might be someone who

You’ve made a bit depressed.

 

Your reasons might be clear to you

But possible to misconstrue,

For everybody’s point of view

Won’t always be expressed.

 

And even if you had a clue

And agonized and thought it through,

You had to go with what you knew

Would pass the right-thing test.

 

So afterwards, a quick review

Might all your worried thoughts subdue,

For other chances will debut

To put your mind at rest.
