I understand that you dislike me
And maybe you're right to do so But please understand That whatever it is you see Is only a fraction of me You cannot know the entirety of a puzzle from a single piece So please tell me what I'm doing wrong I'll do my best to fix it I know I'll always have flaws Some of which you may not be able to forgive But I don't have that luxury You see, Giving up on yourself Is not very conducive To self improvement. Well this was a train wreck. Anyways, this is sort of me working through the idea that people aren't always going to like me (and I have issues with "ignore all the haters!!!" because sometimes they have a point.) I concluded (in a much more organized format than the poem): 1) I am a flawed human being. I will always be flawed. It doesn't excuse my bad behavior, and you don't have to forgive me, but I can't expect myself to be perfect. 2) Listen to constructive criticism. You don't always have to follow it, but you should at least consider it. 3) Sinking into self-hatred isn't going to help anyone. Be patient, deal with your mistakes, and move on. So yeah (wow this was really long I hope it was at least vaguely interesting? Oh well) -Atlas
