Shake Hands With My Demons

No one cares.
No one will EVER care.
Until life shows you differently, but don't count on that.
What you go through is YOURS to go through.
You are at fault for whatever you go through. Good and bad.
You and only you will care about yourself.
No one is offering a hand.
Even if they did, you wouldn't take it.
You believe they're only offering as a means to their own end.
Love, marriage, family? Forget it.
That's a far off land from this hell you created. YES YOU!
You won't be completely loved, it's not in the cards for you.
You made yourself cold and callous.
Always so defensive when you want to relax and be free.
You want to express love
but you're so hatefully tainted by the world.
And that's YOUR FAULT.
You don't want pity from anyone.
You struggle to get through the day.
You just won't let anyone see that.
You want to be seen as strong and capable.
Life is throwing you some situations, and that seems like that's all you can be.
You really do fuck up and go to the extremes. A LOT.
It's not because of the world. It's because of YOU!
