IT IS MY TURN
I just wanna be myself.
Take care of myself like I deserve.
I have gotten to the point in life where all that matters is me and myself.
I don't have to feel overburdened with family problems and dramas which never end.
There is always a new case like corona.
Today grandma has swallowed cutlass, tomorrow that.
Does it really matter why I have become so self-centered?
With my last kobo, I fed them.
Made them happy but guess what?
Behind me, they said
"He didn't add enough fishes to the kenkey."
When that amount could have lasted me a week or more.
I didn't even get a thank you for my deed.
I gave enough care than I did for myself.
So it’s my turn now, please.
Allow me to function and be myself
Besides, it is my own money.
After she left,
I lost myself.
I became so 'I don't care" and moody.
Drinking became my hobby
I almost went off.
I'm back from rehabilitation,
with a fresh agenda.
To stay true to myself.
To treat myself just like I did them.
Dates, I shall go all by myself.
Movie night, I'm there with my full energy.
Just doing my thing like no one else’s business!
