His pain faded as he wrote Filled each page with feelings Coped with emotions passed moments Always working missing out Trying to enjoy life find true love Live to the fullest take joy in the one Called selfish for being selective Always selfless putting others first Took a time out always all in They'd never approve he didn't bother Living a private life others prying An open book others had no interest Walked away there was no going back Didn't ask because they'd ruin his day Spreading their misery they aren't happy
