Silly pretenses

Don't feel sorry for me just because you don't know what I've been through;
Don't worry about me because you don't know what I'm doing;
Don't feel pity for me because you don't know where I'm going;
Don't pine over my life because you don't know what to think of yours.

So I wrote that about three days ago, and, at Denny's last night, I recited it for Brianna and Janet.

Brianna nearly started to cry and, yet, she was laughing about nearly crying. It was weird. I'm not usually around when people hear or read my poems, so I never see their reactions. I know not all of them affect everyone the same as that, but it was interesting to see...

In a place I don't know, but I'd like to call my own.
