A burden

Second one?

A lot of my childhood I was quiet, I had to be quiet so I wouldn't be a burden to anyone, my parents were always so busy and I didn't have any friends to talk to, a lot of my childhood I was alone, more than a lot actually I was always alone, alone with my thoughts, my feelings, my failures and my successes. I think that effected how I function as a human, most people cry when something bad happens, most people don't get embarrassed when they're exited, most people don't have a hard time understanding their own feelings. I've always felt like a burden and I don't think I'll ever get that feeling to go away.
