Sometimes I want to shut that drumming sound in my head
The pounding of bothering with everyone's problems
How easy it is to project your torment on others
But how difficult to hide it within and persevere

Like a loose cannon it shoots from your lips
Not concerned where it lands
In someone's bed or someone's hand
It blasts in their face and leave them anxious
Your worries have left your cushion
They've have now bedded in my mind's prison

I feel so ***** and robbed of my peace
Your problems you've cast on to me

Though I'd like to help
I've realized now it's getting a bit
It's become a habit for you
To send crytic clues in your worries
And wringing your hands in desperation

So for now I'll pretend my cup's full too
My mind's occupied and I need my space
I can't jump in for your every whim
Give my life to run around your din.

Then you'll get angry for not helping you
You label me as terrible and bad mouth me
But seriously I care a flying rat's ***
Your problems are your making
Your mind is a cesspool of worries
It's never going to end
Till on your internal reserves you learn to depend
Sometimes people take our empathetic nature too much for granted and saddle us with their worries and continuous banter of how things are difficult for them.  They just fail to be thankful for things around them and depend so much on others draining the lives of those who choose to help them.
Might I need a Healthy parental figure and light in my life, yes.
I do not indulge in any acts of crime, never. That is unlikely and out of character of me.
Might I need to accept myself, yes. I've 2 friends who have known me for years and I'm terrified to let anyone else in. After anything I’ve been through.

Label me a troubled child perhaps, i care no longer. Yet refrain from categorizing me as a horrible person for trying not to hurt.

That is all.

Not a crytic poet for tonight, but merely a human.
