You Want Sympathy? Poem by Maura Hunt

You Want Sympathy?



You try to make the world feel sorry for you.
By complaining about yourself everytime you speak to it.
You have no critical problems
so look at the world around you suffering.

Look at a friend we both know.
You don't know the terrors that await her at home
You don't know the horrific life she leads.
You never care to ask her, you never care to help her.

Shes the one you like so go and save her.
But thats you're biggest problem
You want the world to save you from nothing
So you make up problems so you're known.

Try as you might you can't get the world on your side.
So now it's just you against the world.
Now it's just you against their problems.
Now it's just you against your friends.
