Unwelcome... (Users) Do this little favor for me, and I will love you all my days. Do as I ask, and I promise life will be complete, especially so, if you smell my feet. It does not matter if this request causes... pain, suffering and or... hurt of any kind. It does not matter if it galls, wounds or damages... anyone on a dime. The world is about me, me, me, me... you see. You do understand, right? You do comprehend... my friend, my relative, or even stranger as there is no danger as I... I am. Again, I say... me, me, me. As that is exactly what sets me free. I want from you things that you have. I want from you the things that you hold dear. Worry not, I simply want to use them all... as I use you, every time I call. I am welcome in your life, as you give me all the keys... and never hold me accountable for the freeze... (The cold shoulder I return.) That is not a compliment, it is however, exactly what I expect, and will get from you... too, Coo, coo ka-do. Everything... That is what you long to give, so I will take it all, and let you take another fall. I will make "it" beautiful in my own mind, in kind... as I am fine... all the time. Even if I am truly a fake... and never, never care about any wake. (Does not care if the giver is dead.) --- Written for the users in my life... and we all have them.

The only time it's good or right to be 'used'...is when it's by God, Amen. Thanks for sharing, Ann. Love, Blessings and Faith...

Wow, you hit the nail on the head in your description of a user. Sadly, it is true, we know of them in our life as well. We have now set boundaries with a such a one as you described, and boy oh boy not fun. Sadly, they often won't change, so we better, they will have no problem taking everything, and still feel it was not enough. I am glad you wrote this, sometimes when we deal with someone like this, we may feel alone in the turmoil. Thank you for writing this perfectly descriptive piece and your manifesto! <3
