Self-Pity by Daniel Evans With apologies to Sir Walter Scott Is there a man without self-pity That lost a girl one half so pretty Who cannot say that he is sad Or inside doesn't feel a lack And truly want to win her back I'd say to you that man is mad If this type you should encounter Don't waste your time in idle banter It matters not how rich he be Or if on his CV it says MD For all his power and apparent wealth Lack of regret means all is self Though alive that's only half And when he finally comes to pass Interred beneath the cold, cold earth Who, with affection, will recall his birth?
