Life is Competition

who let that be a thing

By HufflecupPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

I'm coming into my life halfway through

I feel everything

but see nothing

how do people handle all the noise

now I feel bad for newborns

the world is so much

and we expect even more from each other

why wouldn't we just choose peace

we chose rules and obligations

we chose power and cruelty

we made existence a competition

that means someone has to lose

but we forget there's only ever one winner

and there are always cheaters

and they convinced us not to try teamwork

I haven't been here long

seems to me this game isn't much fun

why not change it

sad poetry

I want nothing more than to dedicate my life to writing, so I figured I would start here to test the waters. I will be submitting stories to as many communities as possible.
