Time isn't my own.
It belongs to many.

Time for myself.
I don't have any.

The balance of life.
Tips too much one way.

I have to address that.
Give my soul a say.

Giving too much of me.
Is taking a toll.

Whilst helping others.
The deeper I go into a hole.

The guilt strangles me.
Fills me with an ache.

For the sake of many.
From myself I repeatedly take.

This can't go on.
A change is due.

The cloak of guilt.
I'll be taking that off too.
