Social Suicide

Social Suicide

Don't feel so sorry for me,
I will let myself drown in it.
I feel weaker than I know I am.
Give me half a chance
to survive my way - not yours.

It's so easy to feel sorry for myself
when I have so many to root for sorrow.
I submit far too often -
it is so hard to pull myself together
when I'm in such pain,
and with you fully expecting me to crash.

I know you mean well,
but I have to separate myself
from those of you
who have only pity for me.
