You're Afraid To Be Yourself Poem by Mustafa Arar

Believe me!
Making others dependent on yourself
Depriving others of their freedom
You are afraid of being abandoned

Believe me!
Being arrogant to others
Tormenting others
You hate yourself

Believe me!
Being altruistic to others
Being kind to others
You're afraid you'll be a loser

Believe me!
As long as you don't crush everyone
Unless you accumulate more wealth
You are afraid of being worthless

Believe me!
By imitating others
As you envy other lives
You're afraid to be yourself
