so much life
with never ending problems
just as soon as I think I have it figured out
here you come
dirt broke, and your girlfriend kicked you out
I helped you once
then again and again
let you stay at my house
even paid for dinner
receiving a call at 3am
your in jail
like what the fuck?!
how much is too much?
when should caring end?
I don’t know
but you sure do push the limits
told the boss to give you a chance
so you repay my kindness
by showing up late
and doing a piss poor job
calling off until they let you go
now I’m the one getting lectured
celebrating my nieces birthday
you arrive at the party drunk
I’ve had my struggles too, so I sympathize
still I say get it together or we’re through
you reply by hurling insults
calling me an ableist
nah, just a realist
I worked too hard for too long
to let anyone pull me into the gutter
Damn… that’s depressing.
Some people can’t be helped. They just keep taking, and you have to build a wall.
Met a few people that just take and take. They’ll bring you down if you don’t build that wall. Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.
Powerfully penned, Nick. Some people are users my friend, they’re in it as long as it’s an asset to them. Once you can’t be that for them any longer, they’ll put you out to pasture. And find someone who can, it’s a never ending cycle of revolving friends for them. I speak from experience. Incredible write. Appreciate you.
