Selfish

I loved the world
That never loved me back.
I had to keep my feelings in check
So I ran away with my neck.

I loved the jungle
That later kept me for prey,
I thought I had to pray,
I later realised I had to run.

I loved the city
Thinking that it’s civilised
Until I saw crime being incentivised,
So I kept myself at home.

I fell in love with a woman
Whom I thought was a companion
Until I realised I was just a bank,
So I walked away with my life.

I hated myself for being stupid
I didn’t know why I was here
Until I started living for myself
So I became selfish.
