Manipulation..

I am still trying to understand what people get from manipulating.
It's a controlling feeling that keeps escalating.
The more you want, the more you need.
Your ego, it feeds.
It takes your soul away.
It tears at your heart, til your not feeling okay.
You start losing your real friends,
No one wants to be around you,
Your controlling attitude never ends.
You only use the ones who will give into you.
They are the ones eventually will go away.
Then what do you have to say?
You can't manipulate everyone who enters your life.
Not everyone will accept that kind of strife
I think someone like you, needs to seek help.
Controlling others is not what life is about.
It's unhealthy and that is how you will lose everyone you love.
When that happens, can you say that what you will have is enough.
