Somewhere in that Harshness

I am patient with people,
But impatient with myself.
Forgiving towards others,
Unforgiving towards myself.
Expect nothing from you,
Expect too much from myself.

I say that hope is not to be believed,
So am I now pointing the gun at you?
But maybe somewhere in that harshness,
I’ve reversed the gun upon myself.

Can you be patient with others while impatient within? One with peace within, one with happiness within can only be compasionate with others. you can give only those things which you have. Mind has got expertised in creating illusion suiting to itself. Understanding of self enables you to understand others.Please be kind to you.
I am, however, touched by the words play, the poem!

Thank you :) And I believe it happens, when people love others more than they love themselves.
