People pleaser
I've always been one
But the older I got
The less I started to care
I didn't want to please people's eyes
So I stopped shaving, it was just too much work
I stopped caring what people thought about me
And I stopped pushing myself aside for others
I care about my friends
But their issues I have much less patience for
I don't want them to complain about their lives to me
If their issues cause them such pain, they should see a therapist
Instead of saying they're going to kill themselves in the group chat
If they tell me how they feel
I'll find ways to write angry or upset poems about them
That's all telling me about their issues will be good for
I am no longer a people pleaser
People pleasing took more away from me than I'd like to admit
So I'm done being a people pleaser
Maybe this all makes me seem insensitive or selfish
But for once in my 17 years of life, I'm putting myself first
