Wake up! You are still

Dwelling on the past

Or rather, a version of the past

You prefer to remember

Wake up! You’re daydreaming

Having come to believe

The story you invented

Is true

You’ve surrounded yourself

With men of weak will

Who will agree with anything

You happen to say

They assure you that

This make-believe world

You’ve pretended living in

Is real

Applying double standards

You’re ready to condemn others

You have hardened your heart

It is now like stone

Where is your forgiveness

For your supposed enemies?

You are still carrying

This heavy burden

Of hurt feelings

A damaged ego

Applying double standards

You’re eager to condemn others

Refusing to forgive them the sin

You too committed against them
