It is a natural instinct to care for yourself
before others. To hear things you want, to see things
you want, and to even believe the things you want
What does that make someone who cares for you
before himself. To listen to your problems, to see your pain, and
to believe the lies and exaggerations you tell
When he has a problem, why do you run?
Why do you shy from the person who cares for you?
Why is it, when his demons appear, you are the one watching him burn?
Why must he brave this burden alone, to wither in your ashes?
What does that make him?
A slave?
A mindless creature?
A soulless shield?
A Scapegoat, nothing more.
