Khaled, it does express in me how people that is some an alot they pretend what they're not, i'd wish it not that way:)

profiler

all the ME's is because someone felt they were never heard and that feelings were never noted. Or so this is my understanding of your poem. A very good poem !

Bentlee

Ty profiler an thats the beauty of words, it can be thought in tangents to each person perception can change. Yes how you viewed it is part of how I wrote it. Ty for your thoughts shared:)

I see all the ME's as a cry for help...Thanks for sharing your thought Bentlee

Hi Gypsy, ty for sharing your thoughts. My initial mission writing this was to host how the selfish mind works, an also how people can be just that, with no past to create it as it was instilled as a child via parenting from a like minded person or persons, in which they may have had a reason for selfish or needy behaviour. Again so many ways to read it:)

Rob. . . we've that in common then lol. It is sad but however so true how some can be. Ty for your thoughts:)

Yes i totally agree with you on that Bentlee-the human mind has got astonishing power to create its own reality-but i don't think everyone's aware of it...especially at young age...which like you said could have got influenced from a likeminded person or the mileu that person was exposed to.It becomes a habitual act subconsciously as a way of expressing a needy behaviour structure(which is then perceived as selfish)-which then manifest in reality-without that person being aware at that age/stage-which i really see as a cry out loud for help.You expressed the thought very well

Bentlee

BentleeOPSmith Falls, Ontario CanadaSep 20, 2009

Yes absolutely right there Gypsy, seem's we both have huge fascination with the mind, for me it's been a life long quest to understand it's complexities an abnormal behaviour patterns:) ty for your thoughts an ideas Gypsy:)

It sure is a very cool study, so much complication in it yet it's seem's for the most part reactionary influence in so many ways:) ty Gypsy for your comment.
