i will.

i don’t care about you but

i will built up the confidence

i will have the courage

and you will stare when you see me walk through those doors

because i will carry myself in such a way

that every head will turn in awe and disbelievement

then you

who follows your beloved crowd like a sheep in a herd

will have no where to look at but me.

i would never write again

because they will find it

and i will be hurt when they do

but once again i am drawn to words

like a moth towards light

and a cartoon bear towards honey

i have.

i don't care about you but

i have built up the confidence

i have the courage

and not only do you stare when you see me walk through those doors

you follow me where i sit and get on your

hands and knees like

the bitch you are

no longer do you follow your beloved crowd like a sheep in a herd

instead you follow me.

but unfortunately for you

i no longer give free handouts.

fool.

childish is what you are

but we are children so i

understand that you need

your attention and cheap thrills

but when you ‘hit me up’

asking what went wrong

and money is not

my currency.

you are now,

i think you already know that
