The Damned Divine

Selfish

It's what I want,

Not what they want!

It's what I need!

Not what they need!

They've pushed me back,

Letting me stay on the verge of death,

Until I got something to help me attack.

Call me selfish!

Because

I am!

But don't play the saint,

Because you're selfish too,

And more than me!

You all made me this way,

Now look at the devil you've created!

I'll take it all away,

Just to hear you say,

"You're selfish and cruel!"

When in reality,

I'm teaching a lesson for you buffoons!

You can be selfish,

But so can they. . .

So get what you want,

Take what you need!

Just don't leave children,

To fade away. . .

All it takes is one spark,

To bring them back.

I should know,

Because I did so!

I'll show you how it feels,

To have everything taken away!

To have you say goodbye to it. . .

As it's in my arms,

While I saunter away!

So am I really selfish?

I guess I am,

But you could say. . .

I'm really just the teacher of life

Woooo! Another week gone by and another update! I swear it's like my brain refuses to get creative until it's been almost exactly a week! Well at least I got two poems done! I am very proud of this poem. It has this confidence that I wish I coud have all the time. But also the brutal truth. That when one person pushes another under, that person is really just trying to cover their tracks.

Let me know if you can relate to this poem in any way. Or what thoughts/emotions it brought.

Have a good day lovelies~!
