Your disposition is far more than just nasty.
Angry words are carelessly tossed about hoping for anyone to hear.
You keep yourself isolated, cutoff from the sun.
That explains your pale skin, I conclude.
Some have tried, to no avail, to make you happy, to make you their
own,
All you gave in return was a frustrated rejection for reasons unknown
even to you.

Your thick skinned.
So much so, that your unable to feel the simple sensation of a friend
grasping your resentful hands.
You have grown old and lonley,
Although you know I've always been close by.
Bitterness and hate will surely follow like scars from forgotten
battles fought long ago.
You will eventually be alone, completely alone.
But you won't mind,
you'll have you,
your angry thoughts,
and your thick skin to keep you company.

What is it you have to answer?
But to answer you have to ask?
And to ask you have to speak?
And to speak you have to know,
The answer.

It's really sad to know people like this. You describe all of it so well. Thanks for sharing!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!

I really love the way this poem is written, you did a great job on it.  It's very descriptive and the title was great!
