To the power more powerful than myself,
I was born in a way that has sometimes left me mystified
Always reaching to guide those about me
Needing to know that they are fulfilled before true fulfillment reaches in to caress my soul
I have compromised, in many cases,
to allow another to be fulfilled
wondering all the while how it is that they can not see me first, as I see them
I have found myself pushing away all, in denial of my need to always consider another first
Needing to be the one to consider others more needy than myself
The world about me thinks that giving completely is reserved for those who submit
That serving another is not for the "strong"
how could "they" be so wrong
