I like my tea with milk

I don't care what you think.

I sing in the car

And I don't like to drink.

Why do I feel embarrassed about

These actions that I choose?

Does the woman on the subway

Really care what I'm wearing for shoes?

Do the choices we make

Define us beyond repair?

Only if we let them,

Will they lead us to despair.
