Poetry: Don't pity me

REDEMPTION

Your sympathy, I don't need;

I am responsible, for my bad deed.

No time for feeling sorry, have to look ahead;

A learned lesson, I will always dread.

Don't pitty me, I am to blame;

I made a mistake, I created shame.

Redeeming myself, that's what I have to do;

Reclaiming my pride, I have to be true.

Faced the music, time for a new tune;

Back in the groove, I will soon.

    At my place under the big oak tree.
    For years I've sat in this heart of the city;

    Don't pity me

    for I have survived.

    I once lost everything

    but made my way back.
