Love and Other Fuckups

Self-Flagellation

I put other people before myself.

Its something I have always done.

I don't even think twice about it,

Its like second nature to me.

My needs come second.

I give,

And I give.

And others keep taking.

And no one asks if I'm alright.

Because why should they?

I would never let them know,

That I'm completely broken inside.

I put other people before myself,

Because I hate myself.
