Martyr

I believe in my purpose

so much so 

that I'm willing to die for it

I feel like I already have

some have sang my praises

as if I'm some sort of hero

thanking me for the positivity

but also for caring

while others have called me pathetic
a lonely man

seeking attention

flirting with every woman I speak to

they crucify me

believing in what they see 

what insecurity tells them to believe 

I was told this would happen

admiration 

criticism 

misunderstandings

judgement

that's why I'm not afraid anymore
despite what anyone thinks of me

I'm willing to die for my purpose

and even more willing to live for it
