Putting yourself first
it's the hardest thing to do
especially when your heart
wants to reach out to
those who are hurting
just to check on them
because you know it's the
only thing you can do
maybe you're in no position
to even do that anymore
relationships can change
and some people may not be
who you thought they were
or see you how they used to
it could do more harm
reaching out to them now
as hard as that is to hear
you'll probably still do it though
but put yourself in their shoes
remember how it felt
losing hope when things
didn't go as you had hoped
being so lost that you're at a
complete loss for words
remember sitting there
allowing yourself to be sad
you eventually made it through
so trust them to do the same
