I used to do it,
for everyone else,
but by now I only,
do it for myself.
Not that I mean to be mean,
or hurt anyone\'s feelings;
that\'s just not me.
Still, if I offend you,
or hurt your feelings,
I\'m not trying to please you,
or appease you.
By now... Call it being set in your ways,
but I pretty much lived my life.
By now... I know what I like, and dislike,
and I\'m only thirty-five.
I don\'t mean,
that I will be close minded,
but I am closed,
to peoples expectations of me.
I suppose what I am saying is,
with seizures, a bad ankle,
a bad leg, a bad knee,
a bad back, and many other things,
don\'t expect to much from me.
Now this piece is not to everyone.
As I said,
I am writing this for myself.
... but to those who this may apply to,
\'Thank you, but I no longer need your help\'.
By now, if I do not know you,
I don\'t really consider you a friend.
It\'s nothing personal.
It\'s just by now,
I trust who I trust,
and meeting new people,
is something that I don\'t,
feel like doing again.
