I Don't Care

They all say
I should lighten up.
They don’t know
The half of it.
“Stop being negative”
They say.
They have no right
To speak to me that way.
I change for no one.
If you don’t like me the way I am,
That’s fine with me.
I don’t ask for opinions,
I don’t care about your thoughts.
I just really and truly don’t care.

yeahh i totally agree. i'm the same exact way and could have wrote this poem from experiences myself. i hate when people think they have the right to say things like that to you, or not even take the time to think about things that could be going on in your life. people always tell me to lighten up, and ask why i take everything so seriously, or why im so angry or depressed..the truth is, none of them want to know. and i wud never tell them, cause it's not their business and they'd never understand in the first place. people are so ignorant and frustrating sumtimes. not to exclude myself from that comment, but at least i have a reason for the things i do. lol.

nice poem:)
