What do you do
When the one you need
Is the one you hate
How do you forget
The wrongs done to you
When they make an appearance often
How do you love
What's hurting you
Daily struggles
I wish I didn't have to concern myself with
I'm trying
Treat people like you want them to treat you
They  say
I make a  decision everyday to pay attention
To listen and not self impose
Could I get that same please
I make sure that others needs or taken care of
I watch
I pray
Before you can inform me
I ask you
I'm trying
What's hard is keeping this up
Because I'm tempted to give up
Perhaps that's just talk
It is
I can't
Even if  I wanted to
It is embedded in my being
Forever etched on my heart
I must persevere
Looking for that prize at the end
