Selfishness

“The Pebbles in our lives, become stepping stones for someone else's healing"

.

 The candour of our integrity, shattered by another’s dreams

Selfishness of betrayal, as they rejoice in the golden petals of self-accomplishment

Leaving you with an empty heart

Feeling hollow after your martyred sacrifice

Left alone, with the bitter memory of yesterdays existence

Of course

This goes to show

That indeed

The pebbles in our lives

Are the stepping stones

For someone else’s healing
