Judge

Judge you must get so tired

Don’t you long for rest?

Splitting and dividing

Wrong from right

Choosing what you will accept

And what you will reject

What meets your exacting standard

And what falls short

Its not easy to flow

When your penetrating dark glaze

Casts a frost on everything

Including pleasure

It doesn’t feel safe enough

For me to breathe

I know I am a soul

Who is far from perfect

I have stumbled and fallen so many times

But I keep on getting up

When the time is right

And struggle to do my best

So for now, please leave me alone

I need peace

I want the happiness

That comes from calm acceptance

Call it a cop out if you will

Yammer on

But I have decided

I am letting go

Of your judgement
