Torturing Fate

A Poem

By Jessica BurbyPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

They're in my head

trying to drive me mad

Is it revenge?

Or just something I dreamt?

Am I delusional

I can't tell

Reality is blending well

The seeds being planted

Are not

Wishes to be granted

They are tortures for them to delight in

To erase why I live

And blind those

Who should have listened

Into a diluted submission

With my will being twisted

Into an unusual mission

To put me down

To take me under the ground

Where no one can hear

And my voice could never find an ear

Not one to hear clear

Or to understand why I'm here

Or how all love has been tainted and grown sheer

There's no love for me

Everyone can see

And they act like I'm deserving

Deserving, of nothing but hate

Now how will I ever reach my fate?
