RELENT

 

Be gentle with me.

You are careful with others.

You are sweet to others.

You are wild toward me.

 

Take me as I am.

For I am all, you’ll ever have.

I am not cynical when I say this.

An unbreakable thread binds us.

 

Wherever you go, I am with you.

Whatever you do, I am present.

We share our thoughts.

We feel the same thing.

 

Be gentle with me.

Everyone goes away.

I am always with you.

They never see your secret struggles, I do.

 

You, myself and I make a fantastic team.

Life is lovely when we agree.

So, do bury the hatchet.

Please end the negative self-talk and self-loathing. 

 

Be gentle with me, dear self.
