Selfishness
When someone is sick
hurting or blue
and your main concern

hurting or blue
and your main concern
is only you.
That isn't love
care or concern

the bridge you burn.
Your actions
you can't justify

are but a lie.
Admit your faults
and say it's true
your only thoughts
are still about you.

This is a lovely poem :D
