A time and a place

Identical, because you and i are each other's mirror. And not on the surface, in things we couldn't choose or control, but in the imagination, in our own little worlds, that revolve around each other and rarely stop to hesitate with the gravitational pull of others. We exist by our own rules, our own desires, the rest be damned. And not because we want to be different, we simply are. What would the others understand about-

letting go, considering others, the true depth of understanding.

They say we are self centered, when all we do is think about them and how they might feel, what they might think, how they might be hurt.

We say they are self centered because they never think of how they could avoid most of their stress and heartache, how they take away the happiness in others.

We're selfish because we live how we want, playing by a strict set of rules that protect others from ourselves.

They're selfish because they bend their rules to take away from others.

I'm a stupid selfish bitch because I spend petty cash in heartbeat.

But you'll always be worse because you never think of why those things are important to me.

Tell me, how does it feel to be the most significant reason as to why I smoke?
