When have I been open?

 

I hide my love

When I love women across.

I hide my hate

When I work with my rivals

I hide my contempt

When I move with the lower cadres.

I hide my jealousy

In my brothers’ glory.

I hide my displeasure

When I yield to the power.

I hide my reservation

In my wife’s parental affinity.

I hide my inconvenience

When unwanted guests disturb.

I hide my selfishness

When I deal with my siblings.

I hide my bias

When I treat my sons and daughters.

When have I been open

When I have been with others?
