Traitor
Write something from the perspective of a traitor, be they a good or bad person.
Perfidious acts
Created by the self
Completely unawares if that which we do
To reduce ourselves to naught
By way of saying yes to that which our
Very souls are screaming “NO” to
We are never loyal to ourselves
But put so much time into being loyal
To others to sate our need to be
Characters of integrity
So much so
We behave treacherously to the self
Punishing ourselves with lack of
All basic necessities
Food
Water
Sleep
Rest
All of which allude us
As we feel self deprecating deprivation
Is the way to go to balance it all out
Listen...
In the silence is your very being guiding you
To the right way for you
Take heed
Be as honourable to the self as you are with all else
