Self Pity 5/9/85 And I pray to God For the strength I do not have To stand in the spotlight proud When my heart and spirit falter I feel empty, betrayed by self To be given the strength to go on Pick up the pieces of a shattered dream And create a new from the rubble But I have no desire to do this I want to left alone by life To often have I been walked on I have no strength to rise again Only a desire to become the dust Let me be what I am, a fool No more to dream, I can not dream When the spirit crashes to the earth Lost from the joys of flight I am nothing, lost in my own self pity Where I feel the inadequacy of living No sympathy for my life, it is Mary Hauck
