I put everyone else first,
Lest there'd be an outburst;
For their needs were more important;
I had to push mine aside most moments.
I went out of my way
To make people's days;
Though their appreciation was temporary;
In the end, they forgot about me.
The aches in my heart and mind
Were hidden by the smile
Painted on my face;
By myself, I endured the pain.
But as days turned into weeks,
I once more began to feel
Hope that there would come a time
When amid all the trials, everything would be alright...
When God would answer my prayer,
And I'd have someone who truly cares
And stands firmly by my side
Through all the ups and downs of this life.
