My own journey, has not been easy and one thing I have observed,
Is that there is a danger to be bitter when you see others with the life you deserve.
And there are some who will do what they can to take this happiness for them,
But even if you succeed in this, your stolen happiness will only be a brief duration.

There are even people whose lives have known the happiness life can provide,
But they cannot be happy for others & in observing others become bitter & snide.
They’re actions are only small & are often insignificant,
But they can become a thorn in your side when these prickles are persistent.

They are the type of person who will lie, to manipulate how you are perceived,
They contradict their own narrative to make the final cut easier for them to read.
But it’s those contradictions that causes them to fall in people’s esteem,
Because they realise the story is not all that it seems.

So, to those who are watching and like what you see,
Why don’t you focus on yourself and just be happy for me.
Do not upset things outside of your own selfish bubble,
Grow up & shut up & just stop causing trouble!
