The roles are not reversed

Post by Ebrahim Algobi »

The roles are not reversed

a dear soul,
Dear that the mistake is repeated, and forgive its owner,
Honor those who wear the example
together while they are broken as a unit,
Slip easily, so I became unforgivable
But blinking like it never happened
Its length will be drained

Because I don't want you to be a burden
Just thinking about who did wrong while he was going on with his life
What is it but an insult to the soul!
I cannot roll on the banks while the other is sailing,
I must not blame myself for his mistakes, and he survives
roles should not be reversed,
"Not to be guilty without guilt"
. . . . .

I found the poem "The roles are not reversed" to be quite delightful. Its simplicity is remarkable, demonstrating how even a few words can carry profound and meaningful thoughts. The poem's beauty is in its ability to be interpreted in various ways, a hallmark of exceptional poetry. It's a piece that resonates and lingers in the mind. 😊
