Quick

You were so quick
to defend who
you pretended to be.
Every flaw you picked
every hope you slew
pure signs of insecurity.

You were so quick
to judge without
a glimpse of empathy.
Every soul you tricked
every word you shouted
was a death penalty.

You were so quick
to be on a mission
to hide your inability
to kill your own wrong
of egoistic self,

Yet, I’m rising strong.
