One sided

Sometimes,
And maybe it's just me, but
Sometimes I feel as if everything I do
Is one sided.
My education is one sided.
Who even cares how well I do in school?
I do, it's how I'll survive.
But my life doesn't effect anyone else.
My relationships are one sided.
I'm the one who makes plans,
I'm the one who starts conversation.
Yet if I stopped being the first,
There never would be a first.
I wake up, just to go back to sleep.
I eat, go to school, sleep.
Every day, and life is now a routine.
I used to live by "you get what you give."
But I'm not receiving anything for my efforts.
I feel like I shouldn't try as hard.
Life is one sided.
