By Bonnie T., Newton, MA
Scold me, and I'll disagree.
Yell at me, and I'll resent you.
Alienate me, and I'll rebel.
Hurt me, and I'll never tell you the truth.
Tell me I'm stupid, and I'll never forget it.
Hit me, and I'll never trust you again.
Forget about me, and I won't come home.
Push me too hard, and I'll fail.
Tell me I'm wrong, and I'll argue.
Hate me, and I'll hate you more.
Believe in me, and I may believe in you.
Understand me, and I may understand you.
Tell me you're sorry, and I may forgive you.
Love me, and I'll you.
