It’s a common thing really,

 

People just don’t want to be around people whom are sad

 

or grumpy all the time.

 

But that’s not right.

 

People need human interaction

 

It can help

 

It actually does

 

It can brighten your mood

 

Make you feel better

 

Even if it’s just for a little while

 

It helps

 

A lot, actually

 

But when people turn away

 

Stop answering your phone calls, texts

 

That’s when gravity becomes non-sense

 

It makes you overthink

 

Do people really care?

 

Do they even love you?

 

Are they my friends?

 

Turns out

 

Some people are only around when you’re smiling

 

Laughing at the stupidest things

 

But when you’re stressed

 

Anxious

 

Sad

 

You find yourself

 

In a room

 

Alone

 

Thinking

 

Are people there only when you’re happy?

 

So you try and fake it

 

Then fail

 

Then you go on this never ending cycle

 

Of trying to please people

 

Because they’re only there when you’re happy

 

When in reality

 

The one person you should really focus on

 

Is you

 

Because you’re the one who matters

 

You’re important

 

You’re in charge of what makes you happy

 

So don’t be dependent on others

 

Take charge of your life

 

Love yourself

 

Because unfortunately

 

Some people are still just going to be there,

 

When you’re happy.
