(The story behind this poem; only read this part if you’d like to hear my personal story. Skip if it you’d prefer to glean your own meaning from the poem: I wrote this poem to help me vent my emotions about a specific dispute that happened.

This poem is about the pressure to uphold one’s obligations instead of thinking about what works best for you as an individual.
