Stop.
Blaming us
For your mistakes
Your insecurities.
Stop.
Your screams
That grate the nerves
Like shards of glass
Scraping and ripping
Down a chalkboard.
Stop.
Your yelling
Your ranting
For they are
Your mistakes
Your insecurities.
You say
You've lost all patience.
Did you ever possess
Such a virtue?
Or,
Are you concealing
Your mistakes
Your insecurities?
Have you allowed
Paranioa to set up shop?
Has the grasping
Control freak come to stay
With your mistakes
Your insecurities?
Stop.
Take control.
Take responsibility.
For your mistakes
Your insecurities.
