Sympathy Ii
Why can’t they see me?
Or, rather what I want to be,
or have, or dream?
It’s not a lot to ask,
treatment as an individual deserves.
I shouldn’t be a prisoner to myself,
let alone to others.
Oh, help! Please help!
You’re my only escape,
escape from the hardship
and monotony of life.
Yes, a useless life.
I’ve never lead the life I’ve dreamed,
the life I’ve been told of?
I was only trying to get help from others,
from those I love,
but I still hurt them.
I don’t know.
Another tear will fall
just as drops of rain
in the storms of my past.
