[hometext] => How can you say I'm selfish when I came to you for help?!
[bodytext] => Am I so selfish to express how I feel? I guess to you my emotion’s aren’t real Tired of helping your friends out If you’re a true friend is something I doubt Depression and cutting aren’t significant enough You given up helping when times get rough To focus on your issues is what you decide Then call someone selfish when their on the verge of suicide I don’t need this **** anymore I don’t need another push to death’s door But you wouldn’t care after all my problems are fake In some ways it’s my life you wish to take You’ve drained me of happiness and any sign of joy You used and abused my heart like a toy And now my anger’s about to burst The despair of other’s I now thirst You hurt me so I hurt you back A forgiving nature is what I lack “I’m sorry,” is what was said by you But do these words really get through? Word’s with out actions means nothing at all Our friendship has taken a spiralling fall What the hell is wrong with you? You not only hurt me but Katelin too How can you call her selfish for expressing how she feels? Our sympathy you tried to steal Making us guilty by saying, “What about me? Did you even think how this effects me?” Well now you know the pain we felt With our snide remarks you have dealt Trying to change the meaning of what we said Yet our message never got through to your head You called us selfish, said everyone has problems too Everyone grieves and at some point feels blue Then I said with my sarcastic tone “Does everyone always feel alone? Oh right what was I thinking? Into darkness everyone’s sinking Everyone wishes they’ll meet their demise Everyone lives are filled with lies We all self-inflict upon our flesh And let our veins drain till nothings left Everyone’s experienced a life of torment And all of our happiness has already been spent?” It took you awhile before you replied But with you’re remark you had not shied “You cannot have all my attention?” Yet this was not the point of our lesson I do not expect all but only some Yet still you did not succumb So with one last phrase I ended it “Gee what was I thinking, I was so selfish To finally get out what I’d been holding in For five long years I kept it within So when I finally decide that it’s time for you to know You made me sink to an all time low I needed someone to hear how I feel To know that my sorrow truly is real That each day I wake up and hope to die That my happiness has been all a lie So I’m sorry I was so selfish to show you the real me I guess it’s not what you wanted to see” So I left you my words ringing in your mind I guess their meanings left for you to find [comments] => 1 [counter] => 170 [topic] => 6 [informant] => EternalNight4x [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )
