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
