Should I blame my kin
For the state I’m in?
Lay my woes
At the feet of my foes?
Drown my sorrows
And pray for a new tomorrow?
Act like my lows
Are unique blows?
Maybe the time has arrived
To stop being deprived
Of self-love
Because above
All notions
And emotions
It’s important they say
To love myself in a way
That my love for others too
Can be honest and true
I am my own worst critic
Feeling my life is enclitic
To the end
It’s easy to rend
And abbreviate all I’ve seen and done
From the time before I could run
A series of moments
Definitely a cogent
Argument to make
As life is bound to take
Twists and turns
As I learn
Who I must be
On my path to see
How my finale
Presents itself to me
