The Narcissist

I see someone giving money to a homeless man

What about me? I am hungry

I see a sad woman getting a hug

What about me? I am broken

I hear my children begging me for my love

What about me? I have been hurt

I hear praise given for acts of kindness

What about me?I know the world is suffering

Don't you notice me? I feel so much for others

So come join me and my selective memory

And see how kind and caring I am

So when it comes time to praise the unselfish

You will not dare forget about me
