SELF

Do not take me as the ideal person and

Do not put me on a pedestal because

I’m able to break your heart

Think of me as a human being

Capable of committing errors and I do

Then when you’re offended by my rude and

Negligent actions you won’t be surprised

I’m sensitive like you

I have good days, I have bad ones

I can feel down just as you would,

Depression follows thereafter

I can be very offensive

But the vapor of my affection

Could melt a frozen soul
