So
Self Pity
Posted in Poetry with tags Blog, dustus, National Poetry Month, poem, Poetry, Poetry Reading, self pity on April 8, 2011 by dustusI am nothing
And don’t belong…
“Friends” don’t care
To ask, “what’s wrong?”
Though it’s my fault
As well a shame
I’m not there
When they complain
Writing honest
Hurt & proud
Wish that God
Would take me now
So what is wrong?
The answer’s me
Can’t change my life
Nor be happy

Just know that I did love you
Before my coffin calls
Some lies corrode like pesticide
Cutting felt with saw
Time had taken three words
Past life for it I’d say
When match won’t spark
Missed archer’s mark
Instead she split
My brain
People make their choices
Remanding those who came
So what if I hear voices!
Lost pawn engulfed in flames
Who knew these were true feelings?
Undoubtedly grim to pall
Blossoming beside herself
Snow White had judged me wrong
