This poem is about someone who keeps giving until there's nothing left to give. It's a sad poem that shows the consequences of being too generous and selfless. It's also a poem that reflects on the lack of gratitude and compassion in the world.


She gave her love with no regret

She gave her time with no delay

She gave her smile with no dismay

She gave her all with no repay

She gave her heart with no defense

She gave her soul with no alarm

She gave her mind with no pretense

She gave her self with no harm

But then she ran out of supply

To give to those who drained and drained

She felt so hollow and so dry

She felt so lonely and so pained

She wondered why she was so kind

To those who never cared for her

She wished she had some peace of mind

To fill the gap that they incur

But no one came to soothe her ache

No one cared to wipe her tears

No one tried to mend her break

No one heard her silent fears

She gave until there was nothing left to give

She gave until there was nothing left to live.
