Why should I care
When it feels like no one else does?
Why should I try
When it's like I'm continuously pushed aside?
Why should I put in time
When it just goes to waste?
Why should I expend energy
For seemingly no reason?

Very powerful beautiful poem!
Do not cross oceans for those who wouldn't cross puddles for you. Always put yourself first. Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️

Wow! Well put… In answer to the rhetorical questions 🧐🤣 Because: Someone has to? You want the world to be a better place? In the hope that others will follow your worthy example? That’s the type of person you are… giving, helping without expecting thanks?
Good questions! Well done!
I feel the same way.
