Topic: Why I do this
XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
What do you do?
You don't help,
You don't fight
You don't stand up for what is right!
You run in terror.
You flee in fear
You dash away when danger looms near.
What do I give?
I give everything.
Friends, family, time, and learning;
Freedom, wants, my life, and yearning.
For a life
I cannot have,
All because
You do not strive
For the world
You long to grow
A place for you and young ones
To get to know.
Sometimes I fail,
But where are you to criticize?
Just standing there
Waiting for villains to downsize.
In ways I hate you.
I often do.
When you screw up
You start anew.
But when I screw up,
There's no going back,
Damage done,
Time to pick up the slack.
In ways I love you.
I rarely do.
For needing me.
Depending on me.
And waiting for me
To save you.
I need you
As much as you need me.
For different reasons
It helps some.
Knowing that I'm needed somewhere
Where parents, teachers, and friends should care,
But they don't know
And how could they?
I don't tell, and for that I pay.
Now or later,
I can never tell,
All blend together
Like one large spell.
So we fit nicely.
You and I.
Friends for life
Until I die!
The need to be needed,
The need so be saved,
We have both fulfilled
What we both craved.
I had a choice
And choose I did.
Gave up my needs, and means to live,
But I have you,
Forever I shall,
That righteous need
My hope, my friend!
My everlasting pal.
