The Sins for which I must Atone

I was born
In the fires
Of tragedy
Delivered
Unto this world
In the pools
Of sorrow
And horrific suffering
Tantalized
Into thinking
I am worthy of
A shot at happiness
When it’s torn from
My hands so quickly
That I am left
Once again
Drowning.

I was born
In the pools
Of regrets and
If onlys
Only able to shake my head
And ask what it is
That I must atone for

Because
What have I done?
What is it that led me here?

My arms
And hands
Grasp in the water around me
For leverage
But there is nothing.

Darkness has fallen
Upon my soul.

 Each  and every  day we grow older Our wrinkles grow deeper Our hair thins greys and falls out Each  and every  day We grow My heart aches ...
