I Can Hardly Stand

Hammad Rais

I’m weak

Though I may not look

But it is easy to judge

From the decisions

I make everyday

I wish to be strong

Deep within myself

Enough to stand

To keep myself safe

And my loved ones too

But my humbleness

Subdues me every time

Leaving me in wonder

About my own self

    Dora says it well … humble is far more attractive and efficient than arrogance!

    Well written Hammad 🙂

    To make decisions from the standpoint of humility – If only our world politicians and global elitists were so! The world would be a better place. Nice poem. 🙂
