Pour Me

How long has it been
can you even remember
when was the last time
your cup overflowed 
really you should be asking
why every version of yourself
has died from dehydration
but you know the answer
the well finally ran dry 
maybe you thought that  
if you just kept giving 
others would return the favor 
and refill your cup for once
that didn't happen though
all you were told was that 
you didn't let anyone pour 
into you like you should've
but that wasn't the issue
the problem was assuming
people would drink responsibly 
as you were pouring recklessly 
if you just kept giving
why wouldn't others keep taking
and that's what happened
sometimes being who you are
can come at a cost
and the price sky rockets
when your self-worth is low
