i honestly believe that i have the mere emotional capacity of a child.
and that people who get close to me fail to realize this until it's too late.
how is it that i continue to unintentionally, unknowingly hurt people?
all i've ever done is be myself

and it seems that at first people are weirded out

then they love it
then they get sad because i'm not there for them enough
then they move on to someone who "gets" them

maybe i'm just more selfish than i realize
my heart just got much heavier to carry

"no more selfish than any other person..."

i don't think you're selfish at all! you have a good heart, hughes. one of the best ones i know. so lift it up :)
