Your selfishness derives
you of feeling
of caring for others than yourself
you have lives depending on you
people who want those small lives
but you will not
give up,
even if it's for their best
because of your reasons
of selfishness.
These lives
traumatized by your actions
weeping because of them
but no care you take
