Mean

Cold-hearted man
with words like swords
wounding me
because I’m weaker.

You point out my flaws
as if you don’t have any;
you make me feel inferior
like I’m not worth anything.

But you’re the one
who won’t amount to much;
you can try to put down others
to make you feel better about yourself…

but it will never work.
