Living feels so unfair
Your whole life is a choice
Of what people you should prioritize
During your lifespan

Forcibly, people who can
Must choose
A limited set of people
That, always, are not exactly
The people they actually prefer

They choose for necessity
They choose for obligation
They choose for subsistence

In the hope of prolonging
This lifespan enough
To share a tiny percent of life
With the people they actually love
