Renege for dreams,
Of other's,
Their opinions and thoughts,
Of me.

Swamps of assumptions,
Goals and demands,
None of my own,
Ceaseless expectations!

Blunt, unspoken words,
Daily admonitions, appeasement,
I abide to each,
It matters not, who I am.

Drowning while alive,
The me who knows not,
The me who is delirious,
Yet, I hated the world.

Stop caring, stop thinking,
Be callous, be selfish,
Build high walls,
Bury that constant shrill!

Then, with dim eyes,
A comical tower,
Despondent to the world,
Should you not be happy?

Alas, this is not what I wish for.
A miserable me.
