~Other People~ Me {1} (2) [3]
~Why don’t you get some help?
There are so many options out there, you have no excuse.~
~You’re just lazy. You’re just weak.
You’re pathetic, you’re a freak.~
~Family is all you have when the dust settles. Friends are fair-weather.
Family means unconditional Love. No judgment. Trust.~
(Don’t try to convince me otherwise, I have learned it firsthand.
Don’t try to talk me out of it, you have no leg to stand.)
~Why don’t you go and talk to somebody?
There are people that want to help.~
--Lies, deceit, fake sympathy.
Pretending to care. Fake sympathy at a cost.
What’s an hour going to do?--
{I give them thirty minutes and the next time you see me I’ll be in a little padded room, being hugged real tight by my jacket.}
(What do you know?
What do you care?)
{Why are you yelling at me?
Why are you staring at me?}
(You know what?)
--What?--
[Wake up!]
~Who are you talking to?~
(The only person that can help me is me.)
[The only person that can help us is you?]
**You know what you have to do**
