Stains Can't Always Be Washed Away

Days like this I come to realize

Peoples' s**t I've come to sympathize with great misconception.

What about me?

Setting myself aside for others then putting weight on my shoulders,

Is this how I want to live as an empathy holder?

Not saying that I don't care,

But some are just open to share

Their problems like everyone can be trusted.

Then again I am encrusted in fear.

Like my actions my words are few,

But soon they'll mean most to you.

When I whisper the hurt I've been through.

Anxious mortals quick to reveal details on inner concern.

I am dead cause it's quick to learn,

That the more you tell the more your weakness enhances.

They'll use it against you in the slightest of chances.

It's not easy to trust people nowadays since most are easy to just put on a smile and fake like they really care about your problems. The important thing to know is that we can only trust ourselves. We shouldn't have to depend on other people for certain things. I mean, people get pissed if we act like no one cares about them, but they keep forgetting, what about us? If you don't care about yourself, it's difficult for others to try taking on the challenge.
