Why Must I Be So Hurtful
Why do I hurt people?
I don't mean to.
I love my friends.
I love my family.
I love my people.
Why do I hurt them?
I don't want to.
I'm supposed to be kind.
Caring.
Gentle.
Soft.
Helpful.
But instead I'm mean.
Selfish.
Harsh.
Arrogant.
Some might even say sociopathic.
I don't want to.
I really don't mean to.
But it happens.
I don't know how to change.
I don't wanna be like this.
But I keep doing it.
I hurt my friends.
I hurt my family.
I hurt my people.
I hurt those who just wanna love me.
But I bite the hands that feed me.
I lie.
I cheat.
I act selfish.
I act arrogant.
I have tendencies of a sociopath.
I don't wanna be like this.
I wanna be someone else.
Why do I hurt the ones I love?
Why must I be so hurtful?
