Get Over The Self Pity

You pathetic creature .
You feel so much sorrow.
For yourself.
Look beyond your own well being.
Feel for those who surround you .
Their lives so painful and sad .
Yours so full of hope and desire.


No need for self pity .
You can survived the worst .
That life can throw at you .
Do not succumb and become .
Someone that no one wants to know .
Scatter the seeds of forgiveness
And build yourself a better life .

    Marvelous!

    I know there are many out there who always feel pity for themselves. They seem to go through life like this
    poor me!
    We all have as you say pain and sadness
    Wish these type of people stopped!

    That is so awesome. I love "scatter the seeds of forgiveness and build yourself a better life." I was abused by my mom and am doing my best to overcome it. I know that it does not define me and that I can become a very positive loving person despite it. That's an awesome poem.

    This piece went really deep and was packed with emotions. I don't want you beating yourself up here, for you have been through a lot. Take a bit of time to mourn if you must, but I know that you have done so much for others...like you dedicate your whole life to everyone EXCEPT yourself. Well, in line two, I think you meant "much" instead of "such", but otherwise, this piece was flawless. It flowed so smoothly, though held intense, suspenseful emotions! Keep up the great work adn good luck in the contest!
