Don't Tell Me Let Me Guess

Don’t tell me, let me guess
You're spending life without a quest
Squandering all your life time dollars
Never savoring precious hours

Have you been without true vision?
Have you made many wrong decisions?
An aimless pessimist, you've become
Have you lost your sense of fun?

Don't tell me, let me guess
Why you despair of loneliness
You treat others, despicably
Dare you now ask, "Why Me?"

You dare ask why your life's a mess?
Don't tell me, let me guess!

Amusing and tragic all at once, eh? I have known these sad souls, yes. All change begins when we look in the mirror.

You given this a lovely quirk I like, Gwen. The phrase 'don't tell me, let me guess' rings with the foreknowledge of a sage observer who has vieweden humanity with love, yet a feeling of hopelessness for the author's target is obvious.

Have you lost your sense of fun?

Too many of us have lost it these days it seems; hope you never lose yours, Gwen!
