So I suffer in silence
while you smile
your days away

You laugh, howl
—joy, guffaw
at the mess of my life

You watch, gape
—ogle at my foolish
choices

You stomp on
my successes
Because you can

Because you want to
—it brings you joy
you cherish privilege
so much more than me

You turned to your friends
and recount how
I made a misstep
—mistake
amused are you
at the mess of my life

So I suffer in silence
while you smile
at the triumph
of your own way
