You or Me? ME ME ME! I love myself a whole lot more...Than YOU !

You or Me? ME ME ME! I love myself a whole lot more...Than YOU !
Posted By: Perpetual Hayfron on January 02, 2007


I am now am content, thoughtful, and careless.

But do not get it twisted. When I say I am careless I am not talking about my self… I'm talking about you and I am simply saying I could careless about YOU anymore!

It has taken me a long while, but I think I have done a great job of understanding all this since I have only experienced life for sixteen years. This to me is not long at all.

Letting people say what they want about me because I do not care, you see as letting people walk all over me. But it is funny because you are the one with all the insecurities.

Be honest, have noticed that we are getting older? Do you see that I have finally become my own person?

We are growing up. But the thing is I have grown past you.

Be honest with yourself you have noticed that we are getting older.



You have noticed that I have become my own person and I have simply come to the conclusion that your just plain ole jealous of me.

Why?

I think I can answer that question for you. Hypothetically of course!

You are jealous that I am comfortable with being me. You do not like the fact that you are not comfortable with yourself and I am comfortable being me.

I know for a fact that there is so much more behind this than just jealousy. But I am not going to force you to tell me how you feel. Your the one who claims your real.

I refuse to hurt my head over you.

The question is you or me?

The answer is ME!

No matter what I will always love you and I will be there for you when I can. But I love myself a whole lot more than you.

We have grown apart and I accept that because I cannot help someone that doesn't want to be helped.

And you cannot love anyone if you cannot love yourself.

Uh, I was bout to make some rhyming stuff up and try to match it with your poetry, but I decided to save me the embarrasment. I don't know how you do that! I like it though.
