For You

I've set aside my hopes,

my dreams,

and put you first.


I cater to your every

need,

and sometimes,

your every whim.


I dutifully fulfill all

those needs,

every request,

the best I can.


But it seems like

it's not enough,

is it?


Something wasn't

done right.

Something wasn't made

right.

I didn't do it fast

enough.

Slow enough.

Right enough.


Did you know that

I have no life?

No want or desire

to live one?


Do you realize the costs

of my giving up all

to devote myself to

your care?


Did you know...

That I put it all,

my whole life on

hold...

For you.
