If it bleeds
sometimes
leadership hurts us
serve and protect
the solemn oath,
holding the touch
being the light for others,
being the change
unfortunately, there is
no change without loss
the narrative 'if you're
not hurting you are not
a leader' puts unrealistic
expectations, to sacrifice
yourself, your time,
and well being for decisions
to be criticised and judged,
no one likes you yet you're breaking
your back for them
I used to think
knowledge was power
but no one told me
knowledge come at a cost
you have no right to cry
or feel, you've to be the
light even when you're
travelling in a dark tunnel,
that's the curse of power.
