"CRUMBS"
by Becky Hemsley
Promise me something…
Promise me that you’ll never let anyone deprive you of the very basics of humanity.
Never let them leave you so hungry that you will accept just
crumbs of respect
and tiny morsels of kindness
People who are starving will eat anything. But that doesn’t mean they should have to.
You are deserving of so much more.
A banquet of love
a whole feast of respect
and a full spread of kindness
So promise me you won’t go hungry. And if anyone tries to deprive you, remember this:
We should all have enough self-love, self-respect and self-kindness to share. So if anyone tries to starve you…
It’s because they are hungry themselves.
