Not a Sociopath

I am not a sociopath; I do not like to see your pain.
Yet when you bring me down, I’ll walk away
You play the blame game; it makes me sick
Your problems are your own; you will not win

It’s neither my place nor my job, to protect others from you
Let the world see the monster you are
I’ve protected you for too long; now it’s over
I’m walking away; I’m taking the high road

You make me mad and I say things.
Things that I don’t mean to say; it scares me.
It saddens me too, that as I try to leave
You cast another stone at the back of my head

Goodbye.
