Sympathy is All I Need

by Cassie Lowe
(Stockton, United States, CA)

Give me sympathy,
Give me no shame,
Give me no harm,
And no pain.
Give me forgiveness,
NOt sadness.
Give me happiness,
Not madness.
Sympathy is all I need.


Give me no grief to bare,
Give me no sorrow to despair.
Give me some sunshine,
Just give me some rain.
Give me some pleasure
That I can retain.
Give me no resentment,
Give me delectation.
Sympathy is all I need.
