Condition

The time has come

to accept your situation,

to be honest with yourself

and recognise your condition.

The turmoil in your head

is not going away.

It may leave you in peace

if it thinks you won’t stray.

You must learn to

expect him at any time

and try to understand that

feeling like that isn’t a crime.

It’s all part of the condition

to feel you are worthless

and that people who love you

think you are hopeless.

Stop beating yourself

with that stick,

and realise what’s going on

is just a trick.

A great intelligence lies

beneath your surface

waiting on you to decide

your true purpose.
