Too much, too little

Too much, too much, too little.
Too much, too much too little.
Never offering enough, always holding too much.
Look closely but please don't see.
the whispers, the shouting, the laughing,
the deceit.
words are just words, and thoughts are too much
we can never give away
what we see, what we do
secrets can only kindle,
but keep such a fire warm
