15-Guilt trip

It ok to be you,
And not wanting to take more responsibility,
It's okay to say no,
To things you are not willing to do,
You were not brought to this world,
To carry the weights of others,
You were brought to this world,
And so you take care of others.

Don't guilt trip
For not being always around,
You don't owe anyone anything
Your life is yours and so is your mental health.

Guilt trip is just a tactic,
To make you feel pathetic.
To make you feel self-hate,
On topics that you don't even relate.

They want you,
At your expense,
And so they say things
That don't even make sense,
Your feelings and needs
Don't matter to them,
Even if you are ready
To give yourself in their game.

Don't guilt trip
For not being always around,
All that matters is
Your mind being peaceful and sound.
