No Longer Pity You

Janet Kuypers
3/28/89

Stop singing that song to me
I can no longer pity you
The words are hollow
And only echo in the past

You don’t know what they mean
You can’t know

It is not your luck that has turned you
It is your inability and unwillingness
To live

And yet you have Turned
And I can no longer pity you

That song has no meaning anymore
