放過自己

By 周柏豪

這一位刎頸之交背叛我 啞忍的接受
那一位用語尖酸侮辱我 挖痛我傷口
見識太少自問目光淺窄
太多鬱結無從投訴告白
有種少壯派的堅責
帶點過激又懦弱的想法
長期受憾事的鞭撻
吃多幾次拳頭能夠豁達
我改變我看法 對世界洞察
越在意越要放開雙手
越怕越要挖開傷口
自傷自憐的石頭 拋落下游
這一位 隊友終於撇下我
風波中退後
那一位 敵對一方讚頌我
卻心不對口
以一輩子學習外交手法
角色恥笑隨年齡會笑納
已經變了創傷專家
看驚嚇片並未受它恐嚇
旁人捏造是非指責
已經不會眉頭圍上鐵閘
放鬆每個過客 擦去紀念冊
越在意越要放開雙手
越怕越要挖開傷口
自傷自憐的石頭 拋落下游
越在意越要放開雙手
越怕越要挖開傷口
撥開石頭 小念頭 空白自由
每一位 就算怎麼對待我
也當你摯友
