Responsibility Overboard – Written Monday 22nd October 2007 (Aged 32)

Responsibility Overboard

i feel sorry for you
but i do not have an ounce of care
because you have thrown responsibility overboard
and there is nothing there
you are happy to blame others
i feel sorry for you
but you lack responsibility and strength of character
if you had those,
you could make things very different
and that is the difference between me and you
i have emotionally grown
and gone beyond the childhood i often hated
you remain insecure and with a false arrogance
everything is overstated
you act as if you are the perfect gift
as knowledge is imparted directly from the lord
but i do not care
because you have thrown responsibility overboard
