• I dread each day and yet I don’t
    Betrayed, I feel, the ones I love
    The tears I hoped were gone still flow
    Freely as ever. Each day I miss them
    More and more. Everyone I knew, as of
    late or much longer, seems more distant
    as the time apart grows. I wish to
    be in their warm embrace once again.
    The year seems like it’s almost gone,
    Though it’s only begun and I
    wonder what I could’ve done; done
    to stop this evil fate of mine I’ve still
    not fully accepted.
    The world knows no limit to it’s torture
    It seems. Day after day it carries on
    With it’s despicable task; handing
    To those who do not wish it mountains
    Of sadness. I’ve tried to reason
    With the world, but it’s of no
    Use. My family ignores my pleas
    And my friends stand by my side
    As helpless as I. The world may
    Work in mysterious ways, not meant
    To be understood by man, but it matters
    To me not. I shall never understand these
    Events, but shan’t be satisfied until
    I do. My life is in a knot. ‘Tis true,
    Though I know not why; my life was a perfect
    Quilt ‘til now. My stitching has gone
    Astray waiting for someone to fix it.
