Ordained

To never embrace,
To never unsee,
To live a life that was never for me,
to see life being lived for you,
do you know what people like us go through?

To never be able to say i want,
I need, or i demand,
Because from the day of your birth
it's been determined nae preordained some may
say, being trapped in your own life feels like a life sentence
that will never be fulfilled.

so i ask myself,
why not brake free and live the life Ordained for me?

To be Ordained in a life don't take much to escape and become free. Just must the desire to run and test the world. The poem has a interesting story. In some situation we maybe lock into some kind of world. But we decide the beginning and the end. A excellent poem. You made me think.

last line - should it be "brake" or "break"?

I like the message here. No one should live a life that has been pre-determined for them. We are each our own person. Well done.

No idea what ordained means but this is wonderful poem. The rhyme scheme is a bit off but that's okay. The truth in the depths of this is more than enough. It speaks volumes. Good job, Tana.

what a sad and longing poem ...so thought provoking...is life ordained? or has it yet to be written...
