Journey

My journey begins now...in this shrinks office.
She says I need help to deal with my life.
If I needed someones help I would ask...
but I didn't ask dang it.
Just leave me alone.
I can handle it by myself.
This is MY journey, not yours.
I'm walking my own path...
why don't you walk yours?
I sit there staring at the floor, wishing 
I could tell her to screw off,
but I can't that would be rude.
I don't want or need your advice so leave
me the heck alone won't you?
I walked this road fine with the help of 
my loving friends, though there were many
bumps, curves, and dead ends, I made 
it through somehow...
without your help i might add.
I'm perfectly fine...normal...I swear.
Just go find someone to help other than me...
someone who's in need.
Please, I began this horrid journey, 
so let me end it by myself.
