Sacrifice

What is the measure of a good man unless it is seen through the eyes of reality That you can't please everyone but you must do everything to please the ones you want to keep That sometimes to be good is to be selfish for your own That to be good you must sacrifice the needs of someone you don't need If everyone favours you then you are fake If you've never had to cut them off then you are flawed If you've never prioritized someone over another because you realised you'd rather lose them than someone else then you are ignorant to the truth That you can't have them all To love is to sacrifice To sacrifice is a good man's deed
