Helping Her

I remembered when I loaned her a dollar After she pleaded with me to call her, She was relived and she promised to pay me back But, she told me later, only when she's in the black. I remember when she wanted to go to the movies And I took her there to please, Now, she went with others to another show She, never asked me if I too wanted to go. I remember when I took her to the store I bought for me and for her groceries and much more, Now, my cabinets are all mostly now empty She, don't help me even though she has plenty. I remember when I took her out to eat And of course it was always my treat, But, the other day when she went out to dine I was not asked, and I was left behind. I still remember all that I had done and bought When friends and family said, I should not, Sadly the only times that she still remembers me It is when I do something for her for free. Randy L.
