When I Fall

When I fall

I fall completely

and give everything

I have and hold

I think constantly

and hope deeply

and will do anything

for their betterment

The problem comes

when no one lives up

to deserving such love

No one else

ever gives back

ever cares as much

ever thinks about me

But I still give

I still sacrifice

I still bleed myself

Endlessly

Needlessly

Pointlessly

Drip, drip, drip

until I bleed no more

An empty husk

all has been given

Nothing’s left

When will I learn?
