I'm the girl that wakes up every morning and spends her day doing for everyone else.

I'm the girl that crochets 15 new hat and scarf sets to give away for christmas every year and still wears a 10year old hat that's falling apart bc she didn't make one for herself.

I'm the girl that handwrites letters and sends them to friends just because, just to make them smile, expecting no response in return.

I'm the girl that spends hours and hours shopping for food and cooking meals that specifically cater to everyone else, even if she doesn't like what she's cooked herself.

I'm the girl that worries about putting out stories for everyone else, never writing what I really want, or putting novels aside because short stories need to come out fast or else!

I'm the girl who forgets to shower or brush her teeth, never puts makeup on, hasn't done her nails in four months because there's always dishes to be done, floors to sweep, toilets to scrub so everyone can come home to a clean house.

I'm the girl who is wearing 18 year old shirts from Old Navy that are pretty much see-thru because everyone else needs new clothes.

I'm the girl who hasn't had new glasses in almost five years and can barely see, because everyone else needs glasses first.

I'm the girl who does for everyone and asks Nothing for herself but to be loved a little bit, given a little attention, given a fucking hug now and then.

I'm the girl who you forget about so easily when I'm not in your sight-line.
