The Punisher

Who are you to judge me so harshly?
Say I’m not worthy, I’m not good enough!
Who’s to say a right way or wrong way?
To live my life, to show my love?!

What right have you to say what I deserve?
Stifling my willpower & voice!
Passing judgment on me, my every move...
Instilling in my soul a lack of choice!

I know who you are, so close to my heart.
Only you can draw blood when there’s nothing left!
Ever with me, never straying...
My punisher, my shadow, myself!

Please let me set me free!
For one I just want to be...
To laugh, to love, to create, to complete...
A single thought, idea, or dream!

I must allow myself to be...
Be more than a worker, a mother, a wife...
More than a housemaid, a shoulder, an ear...
I must find my true self.

Author notes

you are your own worst enemy/critic/etc. how you deal with your self criticizing inner voice is a big part of what defines you as either a failure or a success. i'm still struggling there, myself.

Please tell me what you think
