I Sacrifice

I sacrifice my happiness for my children my mother, father, sisters and brothers and sadly enough, to the one I give my soul. I have chosen this path I live and now must endure But I don't expect sympathy, but rather respect For I live without regret To know my loved ones have been spared. by Ana Espinola Collins Entered in Contest: any poem goes #24 Sponsored by: Poet Destroyer A

I can think of no greater reason for sacrifice than the one you describe.

The power of family. A truly limitless power of change & memories to those who matter in your heart. Tremendously hard-hitting write, Ana. It's nice to meet you.

Such a beautiful write, I am starting to realize Canadians are the greatest poets in the world!!!! :) I might add, for all you do, it will not be sympathy, but love you receive in return, sometimes it takes time for others to express and be thankful for all you have done!!!! Happy Easter!!!
