"you just don't get it, do you?
why are you trying
to be so sympathetic
when you don't even know
how to help me yourself?"

fact:

i was really pissed with my family for not understanding me when i was going through a hard time... i was so sick and tired of their fake sympathy when they didn't know how to deal with me.

when i look back at this poem now, i feel bad about writing it because they were only trying to support me... i can see where they were coming from if i were in their shoes. i was irrational and had random bursts of unknown rage at anything and everything. i was just in a terrible place, but like i said, i'm growing and learning. every step is another achievement: i'm getting there.
