SELF- PITY

I am what I am because I choose to be

I am what I am because you deserted me

Left me with an empty heart of hate and misery

Unable to live life and sworn to destiny

Where is hope?

Swallowed up by this gluttonous world

   A world filled with those who only take

With no consideration for the needy and paupers who’s ache

Don’t be fooled by my assured exterior

For deep within I am weak and inferior

Self-pitying oneself to the point of no self-redemption

  Even worse than a tumour that slowly devours ones cells

This devours ones soul  

Until all that remains is the empty carcass of a lifeless being

Just awaiting for the day of liberation

The day when this gluttonous world finally feasts on this isolated shell

Then suddenly time ceases with the setting of the sun

As Self-pity engulfs another hopeless victim
