I want to speak the truth At all times no matter what, So I stay quiet as an act of wisdom And I listen to people’s unstoppable complains. "You don’t know what pain is. I do. Nobody has ever touched agony as I had. You don’t know what it's like to refuse the air I breathe. I’m unhappy. I wish I was physically unhealthy I experienced the most painful parturition a woman could ever had It’s unfair I was mercilessly abused I’m bad. I’m sorry" A mind that’s convinced itself that there is exclusivity in pain and punishments is dangerous Delicate like fingers on triggers Priority given to cold human actions Fuel to antisocial tendencies Justifications to blinding power. Accept suffering. Denial’s no good, but do have in mind, Self-pity is a disgrace. About the past, What they’ve done to you... does it  really haunt you? Or have you turned your traumas into excuses to depreciate yourself and hurt those who once claimed they love you? Self-pity is nothing but self-revenge.
