Wrong

How does one cope with disappointment?
To know that you have become 
your own worst nightmare.

To know that others do not see you
as you see you.
Maybe you thought you weren't
the problem.

To find out that you are labeled
annoying, a jerk, a complete ass.

To look at yourself in the mirror
and hate who you have become.

To not even associate with the people
you have offended.

Not knowing if you can pick of the pieces
and move on.

Hoping that change can come quickly,
so that you do not feel as I do right now.

Not wanting to feel like this ever again.
