door-mat

i'm a door-mat....
...........................
i'm there to welcome you
with open arms
and you step on me with familiar ease.
...........................
people walk over me
............................
wipe off their muddy feet on me
............................
when they are done,

they leave.

And that is my destiny!

No one needs to be a door mat, ever! Toughen that backbone and don't even allow yourself to write such self-defeating words.

no one ever needs to be a door mat..if one is being treated that way by others then too the fault is of the one who feels so...
remember :"everything that comes will one day be gone... but untill that time life goes on"
