#blaming
You are disappointed You expected to win You smiled through the pain You saw how they pointed at you and talked behind your back You tried your best It’s okay... Don’t blame yourself There is always a time to fail And a time to succeed

Failure
For my situation in life I don’t blame my parents or anything like that, They may well have been crap And ****** me up (Just Like Larkin said) But blaming others won’t change anything, It is as it is And I try and take ownership Rather than mitigate and delegate Hate. Over the years I’ve met many people who look back in anger, Blame all the faults they have, All the problems they’ve encountered, On their parents Or others, How they were raised as kids Else treated at school by a teacher. And, you know, Maybe it’s true And maybe it’s not, But I try hard Not to linger, To doff And point an accusatory finger. Standing naked and alone Facing with all your faults, Taking ownership is difficult And accountability ***** But when the blade of justice swings It’s important - even for such a schmuck as me - To face the consequences, Not to duck!

Facing up to things.
I love the way I can hate Your screaming Your blaming and all your misery. You blame me for spreading in. And then you hate me for what you put me through! And all your disbelief that you comfort me with, all your hatred all your lying, the way you played with me I miss the way I can hate! Cause I know its you, not me! You turned my simplest taste into a worthless meaning. The way you were holding me Your tainted caress struck the void in me! Where the **** are you? I hope you're satisfied. You're nowhere to be found. I'm not missing you I just miss the way I hate you!

You
She deserved it. Everyone agrees with me. The signals mixing with the cocktails and I don't even know what time it is. She had it coming. Her parents told her so. I was acting like any guy would. Should. Skin taunting. Hips hypnotising me with That rhythmic pulsing Suggesting Requesting. She wanted it. How was I supposed to know when she bit her lip that way, flirted that way, smiled that way, dressed that way asked for it. She did it to herself. It's not my fault. That's the way things are, right?

Blue-tinted glasses
It was not her. // When she saw me hurting, she knew it was not her. // When she saw me sobbing, it was not her. // When she saw me choking on my breath, // when she saw me shaking in shock, // when she saw me screaming for an escape, // it was not her. // I cowered in my skin and it was not her. // And when I was dying, it was not her, for once. // I stole away from her her hands and her broken rage, // her sorrow and terror, her unwavering pain, // so that for once, she would not have to hurt again. // I was so kind, so for once, // it was not her.

Not
I never blame myself: I accept what has happened in the past as Destiny, over which I have no control. I focus on improving my self in the present-moment to achieve the wisdom and virtue to improve my situation to increase my joy and happiness.

Blaming Your Self?
Were you a victim? Were you held captive? What was the ransom? How deep was our bond? Were you in chains? Forced to be bound to me? Or is that the way You want to be seen?

WIP
I feel like I’m at the rock bottom of my life, feeling so worthless and all i do is blaming myself. I feel like I’m insane to hold the pang in my chest, the pressure of this world madness. Drowning in the deep of miserably and despair. Everything seems not in the line, so overwhelmed , and the hatred towards me has been growth. I don’t even know who i am, or where i am. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ - it terrifies me, that i'm getting lost and neither can save me.

CATACLYSMIC CATECHISM
Many years had passed; the woman still worries the loss of the man-- She's still blaming herself; and keeps carrying the pain. Whatever she wants to forget; she still wondered what she could do and asked herself what is her plan?-- The damage has been done; but why still remain? She keeps remembering the pain that she have done; she remembered that she's the only reason-- She's the reason why she lost her love; she's the reason why her loved ones were gone. She's crying again; she's hurt and she thought that she had treason-- Many people told her that she need to forget it and it's not her fault for what had happened; but she still can't move on.

❝ Reminiscence Part 2 ❞
They take a step closer to their partner. Their partner shoves them away. "Leave me alone, you have only hurt me." They hold their head in shame and walk away. At home they hold a gun. Hand shaking and tears streaming down their face. They scream, "I DON'T MEAN TO HURT YOU." BANG They fall to the floor. With their last breath they spoke these words... "I am just a person. I loved you but I broke you. I am sorry." The next day rumors spread that someone killed themself. Their partner finds out... They fall to the floor crying. They whimper and say, "Please forgive me. This is all my fault."

Suicide
Why can't you just be normal? That doesn't make any sense. You can't be serious. Your life really isn't that bad. Okay, well what would you like me to do? You don't need medication, the doctors are just trying to push it on you to make money. Okay, well then I'll get counseling. That costs money too, how are you going to pay for it? They have free stuff at the college- Only poor people go there, they won't actually care about talking to you. Okay. Why are you mad? Why are you crying? Why are you ruining dinner? *What the **** Ella?* You're not your mom, Ella. *You're so ******* stupid, do you know that?* Huh, do you? They're just trying to use you. You're paying, and I'm taking you home. *You're ******* crazy, you know that?* -E (c) 2017

Recollection of a Dinner
As I know her from the longest time, I know that under external influence, She did all the stuff she did not wish. As she is not interested in me anymore, I thank her for being my inspiration, She was indeed a truly youthful lover.. As with all good things so with her love, I could not monitor her for 24 hours, She listened to God knows whomsoever. All I infer from the relation's demise, Is that she listened to the negative people, So closely spread in her surroundings. All I can wish for her advising party, Is that they may suffer the same fate, So similar to mine their outcome be.

Not Blaming Her For Who She Is
You call me alarmist Because I say what I have heard. You call me socialist As if it were a ***** word. You call me communist Like this is nineteen fifty two. You make an epithet Of anyone who contradicts you. You call me coward Because I hate war so much. You call people ****** If men should hug or touch. You call people terrorists If they don't worship your way. You seem to hate the poor Wish they would just go away. You have a list of names You use instead of using specifics. You have a list of behaviors You consider to be extra terrific Like making fun of races And calling starving people losers. Make laws against cannabis While you are a bunch of boozers. You use Christianity Like membership in the Rotary. Won't take your credentials To be verified by a legal notary. You hide your profits And brag about your successes And become homicidal If you get anything but yesses. It's a sick world you sell With your hate filled speeches. Surely this is not what Your spiritual leader teaches. There is so much disdain And even evil in what you do. Let us all hope and pray Our kids don't turn out like you.

THE NAME GAME
Why aren't you ashamed Of yourself, your friends Of anyone around you That chooses to pretend That some people are Somehow lesser beings? How can you all sleep With that kind of feeling? Did somebody close to you Get inside of your mind And coach you every day To be deaf mute and blind To the beauty of people And all the good they do If they were created A bit different than you? Did some crazy crook On some show on teevee Tell you it will be fine If you hate them and me Because we demand The right to just be? Who has mistrained you To despise equality? If the people around you Hear such talk and approve Why did you not decide To get up and move? Instead you have chosen To point fingers and blame People who are innocent Why aren't you ashamed?

WHY AREN'T YOU ASHAMED?
He tied an anchor to her Threw her in the deep end When she came out with a fear Of drowning All they did was ask her Why she'd go under If she knew She wouldn't be able to breathe

Dear Anger
it's been exactly 7 days since i was, again, thrown into a body of water too vast to swim to the edge of, and too deep to keep my head above the surface, and not one person has come to my rescue. it's all been "you shouldn't have done that" and "you've slept with him before" and "stop drinking with older guys" and too much silence my hollow bones can stand. so i'm going back to the center, i'm holding my breath till i'm blue. there is a sinking ship where my heart should be and i'm about to go down with it. this is not self defense, this is a distress signal no one is picking up on.
