Drenched

by kelley-flint

I am overly kind to people who don’t need it. I’ve been walked on while I roll myself out like a carpet— so other’s feet don’t get wet. With a complete disregard for the fact, that I’ll soak myself to the bone in the process.

Nobody needs that amount of self-sacrificial kindness— it gets weird.
