Am I Bad?

Am I the bad guy?

I care so much and love so deeply,

That it stabs me when I don’t feel it back.

***

I like to think I have a kind soul,

But every time I turn around,

I get told awful things,

That I’m not good.

***

And I’m not perfect.

I make mistakes.

I laugh at the wrong moments.

I sometimes cross boundaries.

I have difficulty showing my gratitude.

I shut down during conflict.

***

So, what do I do?

How do I fix it?

Make it better?

Am I cursed to be the bad guy forever?

Or is there hope for me?
