but i'd rather not.

i could be disappointed in people all the time, if that's what i looked for. i could assume everyone is out to get me, if i thought the world paid that much attention. i could take every situation as an example of how i have been wronged, if i make demands on how and when you should love me. i could hold out on you, if i believed that i was owed something in the first place. i could wait for you to change, while staying so very much the same.
