a simple request.

someone once asked me what i wanted for christmas. i responded with "a puppy". they laughed. they didn't take my request seriously.

....i didn't get a puppy.

two months later, that same person then asked me what i wanted for my birthday. once again, i responded with "a puppy". my response was met with the same laugh; once again, my request was not taken seriously.

......this person fell out of my life shortly thereafter, and to this day i have yet to get my puppy.

all i want is to have my aspirations taken seriously.

those who do can stay, those who do not can leave.
