That’s what you are. And I’ve just about had enough of you.
You want me to be honest with you. Yet anything I say, you take offence. So I shut up. Then you ask me why I’m so quiet. Yet I can’t talk around you. And you tell me, I can’t take jokes. Hypocritical, much?
There is so much out there waiting for you. All you have to do is reach out and grab it. But right now, your arms are tightly folded and you aren’t letting up. Don’t know what to do with you. You ask me to help, I try, you refuse to help yourself.
I can’t do this forever. I can’t. I can’t be the one passing messages and trying to make your friends for you and trying to make you understand things better. Because you don’t want to. And if you don’t want to, I can try till I die (you’d like that very much, wouldn’t you?) and there’d be no effect. One day, I’ll have to let go. I don’t want to, but there will come a day when I absolutely cannot hold on any longer. I am trying to prevent it, but you really aren’t making it any easier. You’re doing quite the opposite. And if you just opened up, just a little, you’d realise things are so much better than you think.
But I can’t help you with that. Only you can. And I pray for the day you try.
People really need to watch what they say. Their absence of mind, their apathy, it just knocks me flat day after day. When they’re so blatantly ignorant of what they say, what they do, what they feel, it hurts. A lot.
Worst of all, they don’t realise it. Even if you tell them.
And I am trying my hardest not to spark off something else. It’s so damn hard.
