here I am sitting and writing
another poem about someone who
couldn't give less of a fuck.

I understand that you're going through a lot right now, and that's why
I'm trying to be there for you babe.

I'm trying and trying but I need to realize that you don't want it.

You don't want my help
or anything to do with me anymore.

it is a very hard realization to accept,
but it is one that I need to.

I think I'm always trying so hard to help those around me with
their problems,

because,

I want to be what I need,
and I need a distraction
from my own shit.

I need to feel like I have some
sort of purpose here,

because if I can't help myself,
I want to be able to help others.

but now I see, that I can help neither.

I cannot help those around me
and I sure as hell cannot help myself.

but I will continue to break myself,
to try to help those around me.
