Jump Off the Roof

When your response is, "You're way too young,

you shouldn't be saying that.

You shouldn't know what that is."

Maybe I'm just saying something

you don't want to hear.

Some truth you missed, and you may be older

but none the wiser.

You Are Wrong.

Nice and safe in your box of brick and mortar and lies and "I Do"

but she Doesn't.

And your golf game is the same

and your kids don't talk to you

Because you forgot to jump

off the roof and into the deep end

to the bottom where it lies;

what I know and what you don't.

When you say you have it all figured out

and Happiness is what happens when your credit score is high.

You've never been high.

I'm Higher than the birds.
