Stop Expecting So Much
I can’t win at video games.
 Like, I’m really bad.
I can’t win at poker.
 Like, I’m really bad.
I can’t win at relationships.
 Like, I’m really bad.
 Like, I want to communicate
 because I really do have something to say,
 but I’m not bold enough to speak…
 or if I am, I’m shut down by a laugh from a friend.
I can’t be taken seriously.
 Or I am taken too seriously.
 Both are unpleasant.
I laugh and enjoy myself most of the time.
I deserve some down (sad)-time. Everybody does.
 So if you try to make me laugh and
 I clam up,
 don’t be irritated.
I can’t believe what I put up with sometimes.
 A light wind would push me into the nearest ditch.
 I’d probably just stay there.
Oh, beauty of a man,
 tell me to stop pitying myself.
 Tell me to strive to be better.
Well, I will.
 But I need a break, too.
 Stop expecting so much.
 I have.
