Criticize

Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)



You're nothing
But do I have  any right?
To criticize
When you're not in my sight?

You're so lame
But what right do I have?
To criticize
When  you're not there

You're empty
Do I have right to say ?
To criticize
When you're out of my way?

You're such a devil
Is there any right in my words?
In this criticizing
When you're behind closed doors?

And I still love you
I know I have no right
While still criticizing
But it's something I can't fight
