Welcome Your Self Assessment

Cry your tears until you drain.
Take a deep breath.
And stand tall,
Even if the act of it causes you to strain.

Then take a conscious effort,
To look at yourself...
With steps you have taken to do this,
Knowing you have made an unfamiliar decision.

And without hesitation,
Ask yourself this question:
'Did anything I do that was done,
Happen to me without my approval...
Or acknowledgement?
Have I been in a coma,
Scented with a floral aroma?
And I commited myself to forgetting?
Without an admitting to myself,
No one I should blame...
For the shame of my consequences.'

Do this.
And you will see will a clearer vision,
Who you should lay your faults upon.
And...
Welcome your self assessment.
Just for you done.
And overdue.
