Pay Attention

Pay attention,

Focus and learn,

Better yourself,

And love you will earn.

Pay attention,

To everyone else,

What they want and need,

Forget about yourself.

Pay attention,

To TV and books,

Forget going outside,

We aren’t feeding the ducks.

Pay attention,

With energy and time,

Wear yourself out,

That’s totally fine.

Pay attention,

Fully, always,

You can’t forget things,

They will be dismayed.

Pay attention,

To yourself,

That’s selfish though,

What of everyone else?

Pay attention,

To your needs,

They will understand,

When you have boundaries.

Pay attention,

Spend energy on you,

Love yourself,

Fully, always do!
