WHEN

The thing about me is that

I don't know when

To put myself first

I don't know why

I always end up

Feeling guilty

Whenever I put myself first

When is it completely alright

For me

To take

A breather

When is it completely acceptable

For me

To sit down

And rest

When is it completely reasonable

For me

To make time

For myself and my family

 Why should it even

Be a question

I have no clue why

I make my family wait

Is it because

I know they will never leave?

I have no idea why

I don't work towards making my family happy

 Are they not

The most important ones?

Why do I always have to

End up feeling

Sorry

Whenever I

Put myself

First

And for the rare times that I do

I always get treated

Like it's

The wrong thing to do

Tell me

Tell me now

When

Is it completely acceptable

To you?
