You Should, I Won't, I Will, I Could Never

You Should:

Be respectful, so we can be respected

Be poised, for you are my equilibrium

Be a good student, so we can be a good teachers

Be a good person, because I see that you are

Be imperfect, we all are-without each other

Be the person you want, for that is what I want

Complain about anything, how else would I see

Keep your beliefs, embrace mine, if you want

Never betray yourself, and do not ask it of me

I won't:

Complain about bad habits, because I have them too

Criticize your failures, because I see strength in persistence

Ever stop looking for new, and beautiful things about you

Set you up for failure, because that would be my failure

Lie to you, I know you're strong enough to hear the truth

Be overbearing with my voice, yours is just as important

Force you to do anything, I don't want to be forced

I Will:

Congratulate you when you do a good job, and when you don't

Help you see where you went wrong, you'll do better next time

Be happy all the time, you won't anger me-if you don't get angry

Listen to what you say-be willing to help me hear, and understand

Let you guide, I'll always walk beside, with my guidance

Bring you to your limits, so our life can be limitless

Laugh at our mistakes, for they are our perfections-yet to find

I Could Never:

Scream, there's no reason to, if anything, I'd rather you scream at me

Hurt you, because that would hurt more then hurting myself

Try to make you cry, because I'd cry with you, it feels better to be happy

Keep asking things of you, I'll ask nothing of you more then twice

Criticize your mistakes, I'll be there to help correct them

Expect you to be amazing everyday, because that makes me more amazing

Expect anything, because I like encountering the unexpected

Form a judgement, on things you can't control,

I'll try to help you gain control

Expect you to do everything, I'll do everything I can for you

Force you to do anything, I'll be there when you find what you do want to do

Make you what I want, because you are everything I want

Push you over the edge, because I don't want to lose you

Leave you in distress, my smile will always be there to help
