::: Fight Yourself For Your Rights :::

Heart of the matter
Get to it
Gave all the help I could
And you threw it
Like you wanted to lose
In general, or it.
You screwed
Me quite mightily
Misused your status as priority
I let you.
That’s what is not understandable
Now all I have to blame is a reflection that can’t explain what happened
I really, really despise everything about you
Just to make it clear, I removed myself from the mirror
But despite all that, I’ll tell you when you were incorrect about a situation
Clarify if that chick is looking at you the right or, horribly wrong way
I checked in after you told me you considered jumping
Making sure you’re still mentally, and in reality, with us
I thought I’d make it clear to you that life doesn’t come with a raft or protective gear
And those waters are deep
But with a little experience you can make it through and come out better than you appear now
And I thought it was deep
The way the anger disintegrated from me
And the icy texture of what I really thought about you started to feel like puddles instead
But this universe is clockwork
And this was about the time, the first time, that I knew I had a bad friend
But ignored it.
How can I ignore the truth twice.
That’s the part I don’t understand and perhaps, never will
How can one person just keep taking and taking?
Breath, Disregard.
Heart of the matter.
How can I keep taking from myself?
Credit is due.
Don’t just buy your degree,
Learn something.
And take something for what it is.
You’ll get through it, hopefully you’ll stop counting on the raft, the past, or someone else to pick you up too.
