Mean What You Say
I say this...
You say that...
Do you mean
what you say?
Why say it
anyway?
We are a
people that
live life in
a hurry.
We say this
to appease
but instead feel
relieved because
we don't mean
to deceive
but go along
our merry way.
Don't make a promise
you do not intend
to keep.
If you don't mean
to do it.
Just never say it!

Do you ever really think about the things you say to people and the promises you make but never keep? I really strive to keep my promises but sometimes life gets in the way and a promise here and there might go astray, but if I remember it, I will do my best to keep it. I think back on my Dad's time in hospice and I know I let some things fall between the cracks but usually I really do try to keep my promises. There are times when it may take longer but they do say "better late than never."
