-Hypocrite, spelled H.Y.P.O.C.R.I.T.E unfortunately that word describes the ugly side of me

-but I'm working on myself because I truly don't want to be

-as I break down each letter you'll surely see

-why I have to kill the hypocrite inside of me

H- for HONESTY being a requirement from others even though for the longest time I manipulated & deceived

Y- for YIELDING others to treat me like royalty while never giving the same treatment I demand to receive

P- for expecting PERFECTION from others even I can't achieve

O- for being OBLIVIOUS to my flaws but others I can clearly see

C- for having to CONTROL every situation, but complains everything always falls on me

R- for being READY to cancel anyone at any moment over a mistake, yet I expect forgiveness continuously

I- for ISOLATING my emotions while requiring others to be an open book

T- for having TANTRUMS, often random, leaving you confused & shook

E- for EVERYTHING having to be my way, never compromising, by hook or by crook

-Hypocrite, spelled H.Y.P.O.C.R.I.T.E unfortunately that word describes the ugly side of me

-but I'm working on myself because I truly don't want to be

-after hearing all this, now you see

-why I've decided to kill the hypocrite inside of me

The End
