Where you used to indulge,
Now you withdraw and shut the door.
Where you used to give,
Now you stand with arms akimbo and shake your head.

Aye.

That's how it is, I suppose.
When things are different..
No.
Since, things are different now.
And there's no point in giving or indulging anymore.

How strange,
that so much should change once one's 'status' changes.
And yet, why should it not?
For how can one expect the other to give as before?

And yet, why not?

Aye.

Ai.

Hai.

Shoulders slumped and head hung low;
What a wonderful world.
