How Dare I

And I trembled with fear

How dare I

And I was crushed by my trivial pursuits

How dare I

And I cared for meaningless chatter

How dare I

And I argued for nothing

How dare I

And I lost myself

How dare I

And I was weak, when I know I am strong

How dare I

But do not pity me

Do not limit me

Do not excuse me

And do not forgive me

I must forgive myself

I must forget myself

I must remember real hardship

I must consider that I don't have it
