pathetic

by FireFly - Libra

In hope’s recession-
You’re inclined to believe less is more-
You’ve flung your most sacred dreams to the pack of wolves-
Glaring red eyes, and carnivorous sweet teeth-

So the path you’ve walked-
Is marked by the blood dripping-
From the loosened tunicate ‘round those-
Self-impaling wounds-

The only thing that’s going to make sense to you-
Is being that most pathetic thing you’ve always complained you’ll never be-
That should be enough comic relief-
To you’re gifted soul-

Just be patheticly honest, even if it means-
Realizing your own self-pity-
