For Me

For Me

A Poem by Ellie
"

When people live their lives for others. They get so caught up with society they forget themselves.

"

For You:

Ask me and I’ll do my best to reply

Instruct me and I’ll do as you desire

But if you dare even think to lie

I promise you’ll get what's to come


Because you see

I’ve been living this life

For you

Not for me


You are portrayed as the trusted ally

Who you are will have an impact

You seem to always ask how and not why

If you did, you’d understand


Because you see

I’ve been living this life

For you

Not for me


I'm tired of being this expectation

Of course you’d think

To air on the side of caution

Due to the under mining issues


Because you see

I’ve been living this life

For you

Not for me


Well I think it’s time

I take the lead

While I am still in my prime

Your turn is over


Because you see

I’m going to start living my life

For me

Not for you
