Feeling Sorry For Myself(2) 7/13/19 Read Count : 143

Category : Poems

Sub Category : N/A

It’s ok to feel sorry for yourself For me- it’s a form of”self help”
As long as I don’t wallow in it
If it’s brief and  bitter swallowing it
It happens rarely 
When life treats me unfairly 
I can handle the”downers”
But what makes them frowners you should know 
When they come together -many in a row 
Basically I call it a “shitty day”
It doesn’t happen often but I have to pay 
It’s part of life’s balance-I understand
So I let my experiences take my hand
The positive in this issue is a turnabout 
I soon feel better and want to shout
“It’s almost over and  now‘ is my chance
To get back to life that’s more
enhanced”
I know of course it will happen again
I never know where and never know when
But I made it through another distasteful 
pill
I can now enjoy life if that’s fate’s will
