I'M Accountable Only To Myself

I have a real problem trusting people,
a lesson I keep learning thought out my life,
as soon as I think you can depend on someone,
there no where in site.

I don't know why I bother,
maybe it's me that expects to much,
but if you going to say you'll something,
bloody do it, don't lie.

This really freaking annoys me,
because I always plan my days,
everything has to account for,
I have a lot of things on during the day.

This is very reason,
I rarely ask for help,
they may have good intentions,
but when I really need them they let me down.

I guess it's back to square one,
better off doing everything myself,
at least I no things will get done,
because then I'm accountable only to myself.
