~when you think aloud!

I think aloud. I blab. I push.

When do I stop?

People push you to say what you feel. You tell them. They get offended.

But when you think about it, they were the ones who ask you to speak your mind.

I am straight-forward. I say what I think you have the right to know about.

I'd like to think I wake people up when I tell them what swims around my pools,

or when I tell them what they're doing bad or good.

But sometimes, they get the exact opposite.

It may be the way I say it or the tone of my voice, that I am not certain.

So where do I stand? Should I or should I not tell them?
