Walking away from Giving

There's a list of people, a list of people who I've given all I have.

People who I've faked a smile for even on the darkest days-

when though I wanted to cry I pretended to be happy for them

the people I spent hours preparing for

going to the farthest lengths to make sure

they were okay

but it was never

enough.

Some people are worth giving a lot for

nobody should have your 100%, you should never have to give that

especially if it goes without appreciation

slowly I'm removing the toxins from my life

and how relieving it is

walking away from giving

to those whom

I'll never be enough for.
