Fractured Reflections: The Weight of Imperfection

I am consumed by selfishness, trapped in my own despair,
Believing my struggles outweigh all others, unaware.

I am a master of insensitivity, blind to the pain I cause,
Unknowingly inflicting grief, my actions filled with flaws.

I am a fool, oblivious to the magnitude of my mistake,
Unaware of the suffering I've caused, your heartache.

I am a coward, paralyzed by my own fears,
Avoiding confrontation, succumbing to my tears.

I am a relentless quitter, giving up before I begin,
Yet, hypocritically urging others, their dreams to win.

I am a liar, deceiving with empty words of strength,
While secretly surrendering, my own spirit's length.
