I’m selfish.
I insulted you.
I disrespected you.
I won’t listen to your opinion.
I don’t respect your opinion.
I read into things too much.
I assume things about what you’re saying without asking or clarifying.
I align you with other people.
I say things specifically with the intention of hurting you.
I think you’re an idiot.
The universe revolves around me.
Yes!
This is completely true!
Oh.
Wait.
Turn the pronouns around.
Make the “I”s into “you”s
And the “you”s into “me”s.
THEN everything will be true.
What did you think?

Nice one, I felt the hate, or love, I'm not sure. I know I felt something, and i felt it strong.
I loved it, keep the ink rolling,
