Born to lose

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Through endless days of even the murkiest of haze

I shall prevail, let it be told I can’t be sold, through

wisdom I now unveil.

 

I was a giver with too many takers, becoming hollow

inside, all became fakers that spanned many acres,

expecting love and hate to collide.

 

If love is blind it would be harder to find a direction

in which to choose, as for me I can clearly see that

most of us were born to lose.

 

If I seem a bit dreary and a just a tad leery, my advice

to you is this, leave it alone then write it in stone, the

numbers are hard to dismiss.

A very sorrowful, bitter poem, where we have faith and lose faith, in love. We are not born to lose, although some days it would feel this way, and you say you will come through, showing strength, and you are strong! Some times being down in life makes us down on ourselves, and what we see going on around us............you have written a powerful piece every one has felt at some point.

this is a very sad poem that reminds its readers that love can hurt and not only that but life isnt easy but i suppose the only way some of us can keep moving forward is to remind ourselves that what doesnt kill us can make us stronger! wonderful poem!

if we are bound to lose sometimes then there's a chance we can win. :) A great poem. Thnx for sharing!

Thanks for sharing. Your writing paints the picture for me and sometimes other photos may take away from your piece.

"I was a giver with too many takers, becoming hollow

expecting love and hate to collide."
can relate to that all to well. the write and the song-which by the way love Earth, Wind and Fire!- i think go together. you've rekindled an old flame in my heart and mind, thanks :p massive write here, very...mind boggling

[No use.]

dry humor in a little nutshell called life , we just take it as it comes , the bitter the sweet , but sometimes the aftertaste is just plain bitter and a clogged heart

This reminded me of being used when I was loving the other person but they weren't returning the feelings. Another Nice piece.
