She said I'm selfish, anyway

Overwhelmed by the sheer convergence of people who tread their paths into my life at one single point in time. I want all of them to stay but it's getting crowded and my path is built for one, or two. But if our paths are in tandem then I need to stop for nobody and the path will be well-trodden, well-established. So nobody crosses the lines and nobdy expects anything.

I want everyone to stay.

But please, wait, while I adjust to these new shoes.
