You have been left
to your own devices
now that what anyone says
no longer suffices.
They have held their
hands up in surrender
tired of walking on eggshells
in case they offend you.
You gave up listening
a long time ago
because you thought your life
was moving too slow.
You had all the answers
or so you thought
until you figured out,
they all added up to nought.
Now you must face
the future on your own,
you have burned all your bridges
leaving you alone,
That good advice
you were happy to ignore
contained all the solutions
for what’s now in store.
