Random Leaf #1724

There's two reasons actually.
Both are just proving
how selfish I can be.

One is you can't be happy with me.
I promise, you won't.
I'm not that fated, destined some kind of prince

Everyone is praising me for.
I have my flaws.
These are not just any simple ones.

They are red flags.
You won't be happy with me.
And I'd rather see you are

Than not.
I am not some sort of great person who'd
give up his life nor the world for you.

I'm not that great.
Believe you me,
you'll just be disappointed as I am with myself.

So be happy,
I'll root for you with someone else
just not me.

I know,
the way I see it is just too much
of a grandeur when in truth it's cowardice.

But believe what you have to believe,
Just hear me out and I hope, without
even changing your mind, not me.

Oh! And the other reason is
not something delusional nor poetic.
It's quite simple, I'm dying.
