Giving

I lived my life to help the one who needed me

Downplayed my strengths to up the ante for he

Working ‘round the clock for me and the other side

No matter the stress I went through, counted as totally blind

One life gliding to new highs based on positivity

Other succumbing to the negativity, and lack of glee

Angels vs. demons vs. good vs. evil vs. kind vs. mean

Definitions so clear, yet turned murky, it seems

Give until it hurts literally, figuratively, until all is gone

And just like that, the one who is helped, and the helper sing the swan song
