When no one cares about me,
When no one listens to me,
When no one is hopeful to me,
I need to be there for myself.
When dreams are shattered,
When simply living seems hell,
When true friendship betrays,
I need to be there for myself.
When my eyes are teary,
When my heart is flooded with emotions,
When I have no answers,
I need to be there for myself.
When it seems that I have lost,
When getting out of bed is a struggle,
When selfcare is a trauma,
I need to be there for myself.
It is a world of chaos,
It is okay to take a break,
But to always going ahead,
I need to be there for myself
As it is the only blessing,
I cherish in the world.
