INSIDE

I have tried
I am sober on love
I am drunk on hate
I have cried
I am in a flood of tears
I am in a drought of smiles
I have bribed
I am rich with pride
I am poor with shame
I have lied
I am honest to thieves
I am insincere to myself
I am not different
I am the same
I am to blame
you are to blame
corruption is a game
fame is the name
I have tried
...
cried
bribed
lied
I am deprived
so are you
because beauty is
