The Giver

To give
to provide a service
something I frequently do
for no charge
to expect nothing in return
a present
even if I'm energy drained
and already eaten

I give my reasons for giving
stating them slowly
not really believing them
but my motormouth would betray me
so I slowly say words
carefully thought
perfectly enunciated

I will also
eventually
and most importantly give
one day
I'll do it silently
and not a soul will know
I will cave in to the pressures of giving
but first I will give everything I have
