• I hate this feeling
    This feeling of helplessness
    I try to do a good thing
    And what do I get?

    Rebuff…scorn
    Not gratitude
    Not warmth

    What is it with the world?
    Always hiding emotions
    Never honest
    Pushing people away
    With rudeness
    And retorts
    Venting:

    I’m sorry! I’m sorry!
    I make mistakes, too
    I was trying to help
    And what do I get for it?
    Just because it wasn’t your idea…

    You’re not all alone, you know
    I asked someone!
    It was ok, permitted, allowed, ingenious!
    But no, just leaving you a message wasn’t good enough.
    Nothing is good enough.

    I’m constantly trying to meet high expectations
    From my peers
    From Friends
    From Family
    And finally, from myself
    Always pressured
    Always stressed.

    I sure as hell don’t need crap from you, too.
