Childhood Stories

Interested in my thoughts? I’m interested in yours, too Nice of you to stop by A not-so-phony comment will do It’s nice that everyone talks and leaves me without a clue But laughs at my ignorance and preaches about the Truth EVERYONE is flattered by genuine concern You accept what you’re given but give nothing in return Greedy heathen is a term you should learn You spare yourselves the water and love to watch me burn Like I said, I write for myself Unless you’re constructive your words do not help Yet this does not faze you Because I just seem crazy to you But this is who I am Paranoid by the many views People ALWAYS watch And have nothing to say to you But nurture your delusions And soak in pride about playing you We are all humans Yet we’re subjected to categories But this is how some get off I kindly ask please stop sparing me childhood stories
