Pity Party

I had a pity party, but I just invited me I was such a mess, wanted nobody to see I moaned and I bawled in my poor misery I wallowed all around in pure self-pity I took a day off from teaching school I didn’t want to be caught acting like a fool I stayed in the bed all day and read a book I cried so hard that my whole body shook I got up the next morning, showered and got dressed Fixed my hair, applied makeup, needed to look my best Went on off to school and I was not depressed at all Wrote him off for good and now I am standing tall
