Calling out
You don't write about your sins
Or the validation you yearn
Or how you hate
When you aren't the number one.
Cannot even admit the crappy you,
Such a coward.

They adore how
How you never nod head sideways,
Speak in a low voice,
Keep everyone.
Do they know,
You're scared?
They'll leave if you raise your voice
If you'll not filter your words,
You'll never be recognised.

Don't feel too much then
If you want to be such a sage
Or better throw out
bundles you can't arrange.

I wonder
Is this what you really like ?
Or the only way you feel certified ?
Calling out them in metaphors,
Sugarcoating rage in the rhymes.
