It is tempting to berate myself
But haven’t I done that enough?
Said harsh words to myself
Tried to act all cool and tough?
Now I think
It is time to be nice
Time to pat myself on the back
Time to take my therapists advice.
She tells me I am a good writer
I nod and try to believe
It is time that I did
Time that I took heed.
I’ve gone through enough
In my childhood I did always have to pretend
Not anymore though
Now, I can be my own friend.
