Prioritize yourself
Then think about others
Even though they may be
Your own sisters or brothers
Don’t bend over backwards
To help people in need
For they will become clingy
And on your compassion, feed
If you don’t draw boundaries
And keep your head held high
You will be used by people
And left up high and dry
So learn before it’s late
And you, your actions, hate
For being so kind and meek
Since people may think you are weak
In this commercial world
The world bows before might
So learn to stand up for self
And do not compromise, if right.
