How must you feel up there? So exalted with | |
such a haughty attitude. No one’s inferior to | |
your wise words, my dearest friend, acting as | |
though you have authority to judge. You do not | |
have permission. Who gave you license to pour | |
hate down throats, bringing them a shameful | |
disposition? No one likes a discouraging word | |
slurring out of a drunkard’s mouth, intoxicated | |
on his own pride. How do you feel, safe and secure? | |
You were wrong. You judge the faith, lives, | |
and actions based on your insecurities. Words | |
cut like blades to the skin, making people numb | |
to feeling. Words cut like blades to the skin. Why | |
can’t you realize what you are doing? Where is | |
their self worth now? Running miles far away | |
based on your invitation. Cage your mouth, and | |
listen to your heart. We are not animals, nor are | |
you to be one. We are who we are, from beginning | |
to end. Don’t judge the loved. Stop hating | |
the hurt. Quit living for such selfish demands. If | |
you don’t stop while you’re ahead, pride will lead | |
you to self-destruct. Kingdom come, no one is | |
done. All have been forgiven. We are who we are | |
from beginning to end. |
