Sacrifices

We've made so many just to please others Leaving parts of ourselves behind: Pieces of our heart and soul, just to see other people happy. Ignoring what we need. Today it stops with me. I'm taking care of myself, and what I need To hell with you... I'm done making sacrifices At my own expense. Giving up what dreams I Have. Pleasing others came easily, until they took advantage of my kindness and generosity. No longer will I be walked upon... as if I was someone's doormat to wipe their dirty shoes upon. Sacrifices are done, turn and walk away if you you must...angry? Good I won't shed a tear... see you maybe in the next life.
