Retort

Don't tell me
my feelings are invalid.
That what I speak of
is a mere illusion.
You can judge from experience
of your own circumstances
but not having walked
in my shoes,
how can you say
that what I feel isn't true?
And what law says
that you are right
and I am wrong,
just because 99%
of the world agrees
with your view?
