Me Myself and I

Me, myself and I 

Who I should blame for being misunderstood
When I do not understand myself 
Who I should hold guilty for not listening to me
When I do not listen carefully to myself 
Whatever effects my actions and words bring 
Who should I hold responsible except me? 
I look at the world to be known well 
When I do not look at what I have inside 
I want people not to make fun out of me 
When I do not take things myself seriously 
Who I should blame for being disrespected 
When I do not have respect for myself 
I wish i should be recognized by people 
Before I recognize myself and anybody else 
Who I should accuse for being coward and weak 
While I overlook the lion which I have got inside 
The power I seek from somewhere else 
But I neglect the source while its epicenter is my soul 
Whatever suffering and bitterness for the failure I bring 
Who should I blame or accuse except irresponsible me?
