You've won.

I know why I don't write anymore, everything I write is dull and out of pain. Nothing new, nothing amazing, nothing even worth while. I apologize if you're reading this new piece of shit; wasting your time if you want to be inspired here. I used to have a strength, that picked me up every time I fell, but I don't have the will to even try anymore. It's never worth it anyways. Maybe it will be easier now. Easier and Numb. Why should I bother, when it never amounts to what I aim for? I've lost the want, to be better than I am. Now I'm just rambling; just looking for a reason to actually hit delete on my account, and I truly have plenty. It's sad frankly, in my writing this, I'm asking someone to give me a reason to belong, which is pathetic to me. I'm not a beggar, but no longer a fighter. What does that leave me with? The honest, heartfelt truth, is the hardest to except. The truth, that I can fall if I want to, and I don't expect anyone to help me up. I'll watch you walk away from me, I won't judge you for it; I expect it. With that one look as you pass, I see the truth in your eyes. So go ahead and say it. Go on, tell me this is shit. Tell me I can't do it. Tell me I'm pathetic. Tell me I just want attention. Tell me I'm wasting my time. Tell me everything you want, because I already know. I already agree with you. I finally agree with you. Congratulations my dear. You win.
