I know that when I’m gone you will mock me for my selfishness for taking my life away from you but please know, that I lived my life bound by selflessness I lived to serve and please I recited my poems in rehearsal so my last words could comfort you and you’d never feel to do the same as I I scar my flesh to bear my cross So you may never have to. Please know, I lived every day confined by others needs I listened to your woes I starve my body to bear your cross So you may never have to. Know that this last act I take isn’t selfish That my last act is one of freedom It will be my only act of self-indulgence in my life of catering you.
my final act is one of freedom I died to please myself
