can't you see my walls are crumbling?
the view looks different from everywhere.
the ups & downs, positives & negatives, friends & enemies.
everything is fine, but it's not at all.
"it's just the way I am."
honestly, everyone makes compromises, regardless of how a person is or isn't. everyone changes every day. everyone makes stupid, smart, good, bad, selfish, selfless, naive, and irresponsible choices on a regular basis; the general consensus seems to be that we end up beating ourselves up about it, and then other people assume it's their fault. problems seem to form from just one person making one decision, and everyone around then taking it the wrong way. maybe if we all talked things out, or took time to notice how our decisions and attitude effects the people around us, we'd all be a little better off. I don't care if it's the way you are or arent. most every group of friends you look at have the same types of people. the over emotional one, the over analyzer, the careless one, the mediator, the dense one, the jackass, the shoulder to lean on, the complicated one, and the uncontrollable one. everyone makes sacrifices, and I don't think it's fair for the same people to make the same ones, while the selfish people sit back and cruise through life, in complete oblivion. some things will never change, it's just the way things are.
irrelevance!
what have I even become? making decisions, consciously knowing that I will get hurt. decisions that don't even matter right now, and will only make me feel worthless. I look for things in all the wrong places, and play it off so well. atleast to myself, I do. no one is ever content. why should I be?
I'm not a good friend anymore. I don't know how to be. somewhere in between the broken and forgotten friendships, and the failed attempts to repair, restore, or create a mutually leveled relationship, I gave up. I've created this cliched assumption about life and the people around me, without any reason other than myself and the decisions I've made, and am making everyday.
