When she was healthy,
She was all busy,
Again, she did not take care,
And then she found it unfair.
She was always working,
Trying to surpass herself,
while her body was overworking,
As results, she exhausted herself.
She now is at the hospital,
She collapsed this morning, they said
She could have prevented it,
She did not pay attention to her body.
Work is important, it is necessary,
But knowing our limits is accountability .
