When the Table Turns

You see the speck in my eyes But in yours, a log stares out in disguise. You always point a finger And my dilemma is the trigger For you to always judge me. Your words hunt down My pride and esteem to the ground. Words that spike souls And hurt hearts. All you do is judge me! When the table turns And the same fire burns You to make life bitter Would you do better? When the table turns And the same pain pierces to put you on the spotlight How well would you fight? When the table finally turns And you wear my shoes How far would you go?
