It Isn't Nice

It isn't nice to belittle people.

It isn't nice to make someone feel like crap.

It isn't nice to dismiss someone.

It isn't nice to make people feel stupid.

It isn't nice to say "come to me with things" 

only to later on turn away and scoff.

It isn't nice; not at all.

It's things like this that make people averse to telling you things.

It's things like this that make people think you care only about your own stuff.

It's things like this that separate you, and close you off from others.

And then you wonder why nobody lets you in.

You hurt people.

You say your sorry (sometimes), 

but then you go back and do it again.

And again.

And again.

You want people to like you?

You want people to care?

The first step to getting those things

is to first be willing to change.

Then you must actively try to change,

to seek out ways to be good to others.

Because if you keep up this behavior

you'll wind up very lonesome,

and have no one else to blame

but yourself.
