Lachrymose

I sleep with the pillow o’er my head
instead of under it:
I refuse to rest my burdens on fluff —
my sadness is mine alone,
I shall not share it with you;
Nor shall I embrace the light
of your “positive vibes”;
Nor laugh
when you tell me to laugh —
why should I?
Are you a fool, did you not see
that I entered this world crying?
