being Used

Feeling used is the worst feeling to have.  When, no matter what you do it’s still there.  Everyone around you just keeps pretending that they don’t see all the anger and pain that you’re carrying around.   Instead, they just put on a smile and act like nothing is wrong.  

Leaving you wondering why you do even brother trying to talk to them.  When they don’t care how you feel.  All they care about is what you can do for them and when you say no or you don’t have whatever it is they want from you.  You’re the ******* just because you're tired of everyone just taking whatever they want out of you and you end up with nothing but being broke and in pain.  
When is it your turn in this life to just have someone call you and say hi and mean it.  Without wanting anything in return and be sincere.  Is a crime in this world to just show some real emotions.   Instead of being fake.  Wouldn’t be easier to just show that you care about what’s going on in someone’s world?   You’re caring and being sincere may save their lives because you never know if they’re on the verge of just giving up on living and they decided that they can’t take any more pain.  It’s time to find a way out of this world completely.
