Poetry

Lost Time

by Patricia Harris

I have spent so much time 
giving away parts of me
with no concerns of
what I was tearing from myself...

Thinking that it was
what was expected
from me...

In reality all I was doing
was pouring time
into others,
openly ignoring
the holes I was creating
inside of me.

One thought on “Monday Poetry

  1. And, until we do something to, stop, giving our self to the rest of the world, so, wholeheartedly, the world will only keep on, take advantage of our, most, vulnerable, parts. We need to, think of our own benefits, to, protect our selves first, because, nobody else, will. This is not being, selfish, but, having enough, SELF-RESPECT, self-preservation is, the key to our own, SURVIVAL.
