I Don't Need This **** (Refusal of Ballot)
I don't care!
I don't
want
to find a mate.
I don't want to worry about if or if not my taxes have been filed
And I'm never going to give a **** whether the planet has been saved or not...
I just don't care
And why should I?
It’s not my problem.
It isn't my fault that you couldn't take care of it long enough for me to arrive and fix it.
You
made these expectations for me.
Not me
So I won’t be held responsible for Your self-fulfilled loss upon my departure.
This life is my own choice
And "To be or not to be?" is really out of the question...
I never asked for the responsibilities that
you
imposed on me
Or the guilt I'm constantly riddled with...
I never even asked to be here
But here I am.
Still waiting for my moment...
Still just trying to get by. Biding my time...
And that's okay.
But I Won't be told by someone more lost then I...
That I need more "direction."
Or that I need to find
my own
path...
At least my purpose Can be fulfilled
And I'm not going to rest my appreciation for existence on you.
Because
that
isn't
fair
So don't give me that!
I'll just walk away.
I'm through with this ****
And I'll do what’s right for me.
Just stay the **** out of my life and away of my affairs
Go find someone else to lay your guilt on.
My ballot has been refused!
This is only the second poem I've ever written that includes cursing. Apologies for the harsh language.
