stanza six

How can you love
Other people when
You cannot love
Yourself in the first
Place?
How can you
Forgive them when
You cannot forgive
Yourself first?
How can you be
Genuine when
You cannot accept
Yourself?
How can you be
Happy when you
Are still wounded,
Caged in the past
And too scared
To face the reality
And forget the
Old and worst
Version of you?
