Prioritize yourself

NafisaSB

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.
