Fate

The calm atmosphere was disturbed by my painful cries,
as I realize I'm imprisoned in a world tarnished with lies.

You are my life, you are my everything, I love you even though I shouldn't
even though you don't love me and it's obvious now that you wouldn't.

I'm desperately struggling to decide what to do,
do I finally define how I feel to you?

I'm like a piece in a evil malicious game of chess,
each small move is significant and determines the outcome of this mess.

It's like I'm trapped in a tall building being swallowed by fierce deadly flames.
Do I burn? Or jump? These are the choices in fates sadistic games.

I'm screaming hysterically I LOVE YOU in my mind,
so why can't I utter these words and witness what I find.

I abandon all hope by insisting that you will never love me,
but you loved me once so I should consider it maybe.

Today the radio tortured my heart by playing our song,
I pathetically crawled away which I knew was wrong.

My thoughts are consumed by you every day and every night,
I am stunned and confused as to how our love ended after one fight.

I want you, I miss you, I need you this is obviously true,
so why can't I simply confess that to you?

This was awesome! Love the emotion that you captured, I could feel the pain of wanting him, but unable to have him! Excellent!!

This was amazing.
Fate is sometimes the one thing that always holds us back no matter what.

Fate can be the coldest mistress, we try to find the words to show those feelings deep with us. One moment and everything changes and we try to change it back. Great poem Hannah.

[Coyote Poetry]

A very sad and powerful poem. I tell people. Best to say nothing then allow words to block the possibility of forgiveness. I like the description of the separation. Sometime we wish for different conversation and better endings. I like the ending of this poem. If we are lucky. Forgiveness can be possible. A excellent poem.
