You are a human —
flawed as such.
To that rising stress
will take its toll
if you don’t sit in solitude
to review your own mind,
you are in trouble.
It’s very likely
you will make mistakes
and self-sabotage too.
So carve out time,
be your own critic.
come back to your lane
if you’ve drifted into someone else’s —
or risk hitting the curb.
I see too many
make mistakes,
refuse to own them,
and rather carry on
as if they’re right.
It’s to hide lies,
to avoid guilt —
and that’s how
a person becomes a psychopath.
Being true to yourself
is the real goal —
not being important.
