Them

Scheduling time for you 
out of their own convenience. 
holding your past against you. 

I know how you feel. 
feeling trapped 
whenever they are around. 

discrediting your dreams and abilities.
lying to you more than once. 
their negativities rubbing off on you. 

excessively envious of what you have. 
motivating you to be judgmental. 
encouraging you to be hateful. 

wanted you to be someone else 
besides your divine self. 
you must recognize bad company!
