Succor is for the weak
help is not needed
there is no problem
stop staring everyone
lives this way keep
your advice leave well
enough alone everyone lives
this way there is no problem
stop staring fuck empathy
stop staring disappointedly
there is no problem everyone
lives this way everyone lives this
way please tell me everyone lives
like this it hurts it howls it haunts
on a daily basis I succumb even
when I don’t want to I give in
because I know no other way
to live
