Buttons

You tried to push my buttons when you meanly said
that I couldn't have some time to think of what's ahead.

When I begged and pleaded, you came back to say
that if I insisted you would give me one more day.

The whole time I responded in a graceful way,
taking your resistance, knowing you like to play.

In the end I think there's a lesson here for you
be kind to those around you, or face the Karmic truth.
