We are one kind
Loving suffering,
From everything by a feeling,
From being smiled at,
To being thrown out
Always liking to feel sad,
Sidetracked, lonely,
None can describe,
Munching and chewing
The cud of thought
Again again, and again,
Feeling more than
Jesus Christ who carried
The cross of his own teaching,
Walking away from good
Happy thoughts, which
We could have diverted to,
But no, the self suffering
Is more dear to us,
To carry like a bundle along,
Once in a while to share
With dear listeners,
To carry our burden too.
