Helping Others... Poem by Catherine Hendry

I deal with my issues alone
I CHOOSE to help others FIRST!
More often than not, I suffer in silence...
But I do what I do at my own volition,
Without any expectation,
Without any acknowledgement
I am NOW learning, how little I truly matter...
No matter what, my heart remains open
That little crack has finally broken
I am but ONE and there is only so much I can do...
If I could part seas,
If I could move mountains...
That still wouldn't make a difference
I just wouldn't be enough
