Stop Probing

Stop asking me questions about my personal life

Have the common courtesy to respect my privacy

Stop asking me why I refused to tell you my secrets

Have the decency to at least comprehend my reluctance.

 

I don't need to know about your personal life

in order for me to reveal mine.
You can save all your juicy stories.

Because this is not an exchange of goods.

I will share if I feel comfortable doing so

In fact, you don't have to ask; I will tell you on my own initiative.

So if I don't, well,

it simply means I am not prepared for you to know

Or that you play a lesser significance in my life.

I have never probed into your personal life
Nor have I conducted any sort of investigation about your current affairs.

Hence I wish you would reciprocate.
