I Cannot Read Minds
I do not know what others think,
As I can't read people's minds,
It's a quality I don't possess,
And it's not how I'm designed.
So I will not know if you won't say
Whether you are joyful or distressed.
Though from the expression on your face
I could try to make a guess.
So now let me know your problems,
Or I shall not understand,
Perhaps why you are disappointed
About what you first had planned.
So don't bottle up your emotions,
And just tell me what you think.
For I cannot see your deepest thoughts,
Or just what you'd like to drink.
