Sympathy
In all sincerity,
It is a pathetic pity,
I merely offer sympathy,
With such velocity.
This sadness born out of the blue,
That decides to levy itself on you.
In your fixed stillness,
I sense your illness,
Accept my sympathy.
You lost a pet,
Somebody made you upset,
Accept my sympathy.
You lost a friend,
Your broken heart is yet to mend,
Accept my sympathy.
You were once abused,
Possibly at times wrongly accused,
Accept my sympathy.
You marriage is on the rocks,
You got divorced, left without a buck,
Accept my sympathy.
You lost a fortune,
Your voice can’t sing a decent tune,
Accept my sympathy.
You lost in love or lost your job,
Or perhaps at one stage got robbed,
Accept my sympathy.
Your life is a mess,
Everything around you depresses.
Whatever the circumstances,
Accept my sympathy,
And if I happen to show no sympathy,
Please accept my sympathy!
