Flickering Flame
I am a light
A flame
I am slowing burning out
From neglect
Of myself.
Trying to give
Help
Support
Kindness
To others.
Time lost
From myself
From my family
From caring to my soul
My appearance and life.
Sacrifice
Myself
My appearance
My hobbies
And my dreams.
Serving others
Silently waiting
In the dark
Lost
Searching for my turn.
Will I ever be
Thought of
Will I ever be
Seen doing the work
Will I ever get my credit of work?
My flame of life
Of myself
My spirit
Is dying
And no one around me sees it.
People just ask for more
Help
Support
Kindness
And they don’t see me just my sacrifice.
