Destiny

Destiny

A Poem by AMetaphoricalSoul

No one knows who he or she really is

They don’t observe themselves all day

They observe the world around them

From what I’m told I am a genuinely good person

But I am filled with sorrow

Because I am alone

Because I am unloved

Because bad things always happen to me

Why do bad things always happen to good people?

I ask myself that question everyday

And everyday I come up with no answers

As far as I know there are no answers

But “The Wheel weaves as The Wheel wills” as told by Robert Jordan

And I believe in fate and destiny

Although it’s not always clear to people what their fate will be

Some are destined for great things

While others are destined for failure

By my perspective so far I believe I am a failure

A failure in love and life

A failure to my family and friends

And mostly a failure to myself

I am not a failure because of the bad things I’ve done

But because of the good things I haven’t done

Thankfully I am still young

I still have the opportunity to make amends

And I plan to start right now
