I Selfish

Pacifique Niyitanga

My love or kindness

My effort or support

Yet they see nothing

 

I sacrifice myself

But still, they name me

The greedy shark

 

My savings on the table

My tears hidden

But people only receive

 

I tried to keep her,

Fought for him and his

Faults, but trust is a sin

 

Before four, I saw three,

Two, one, and one is me

As selfless is gone.

    That is sad.

    • Pacifique Niyitanga

      This is how life goes these days. It is sad, We are all sad... But they do not care how harder we try to make them happy, even when we are sad.
