"The victim"
Oh! I'm sorry, I confess, I'm the offender,
But can I fathom the plight of the victim's splendor?
Yes, I'm right, I'm the one at fault,
Yet in society's eyes, my actions exalt.
I weave my words with cunning intelligence,
Shifting blame with eloquence, a subtle pretense.
Poor soul, unaware of my verbal dance,
I paint them as inept, devoid of chance.
Oh, how grand I must seem, with aura bright,
Casting shadows on others, veiled in light.
Their faults mere reflections of my own neglect,
In the eyes of society, my ego erect.
But beneath the facade, a truth untold,
Lies the fragility of a heart grown cold.
For in the game of judgment, we all play a part,
In the theater of society, where empathy departs.
