Poetry

LIFE... some things don't go as intended,

Trying to be the difference but replicating the image,

Of visions you shouldn't mimic exhibited unintended,

Intentions are well exquisite envisioned fled at existence,

You know you're making moves trying to acquire a status,

In a system in which victim is the required status,

To defy is suicide a truth one of the saddest,

To rise for what is right your life a demise so tragic,

But still you gotta focus the notion too much at stake,

There's mouths you gotta feed there's hearts you dare not break,

And that plate that seemed so full proceeds to shatter and break,

Save face replace and create you can't leave it to fate,

Embrace true determination is only extinguished in death,

Enforce my will on this world and fight till there's nothing left,

A test destined for failure and yet gladly accept,

For the love that binds us drives us and none of us are exempt

About the Creator

Benjamin Small

I fell in love with writing. At first, it all started with my love for music. It went from writing lyrics to so much more. As if I'm leaking my soul into every word, phrase and syllable. My goal is to share my passion with the world.
