Your Own Will Poem by Meriam Joseph

Your Own Will



I'm shred, broken and hit,
Just let me suffer in silence
I'd rather cry my soul out in this pit
The reality is just too much of a tyrant

Expectations thrown up high above,
Shot down under a second
Is this universe with no love?
I've not enough luck to be threatened

I brought this one down on my own
I'm the reason I tripped and fell
Thought I would reach the goal
Underestimating all the others, to you I tell

And now the ugly truth's too harsh
So light yet so heavy,
I sing like a lonely bard
In quick suppressed melancholy

You swim to sink; you turn around
And darling no one's behind you
It's your story and do remember
The finale is up to you

Alone you make the trivial effective
Alone you climb the unknown hill
And to believe the guy who gave you the directions
Is and only your own will
