Today is National Poetry Day, so I thought I would write something different for my Write 31 Day Challenge.
When life doesn’t go the way I planned,
I try to make sense and understand.
Why is it I’ve been dealt a bad hand?
When life goes down a different path,
I’m now left with the aftermath.
Why is it I feel it’s your wrath?
When life doesn’t turn out quite right,
And I feel like I’ve lost the fight.
Why is it you don’t hear my plight?
When life seems to pass me by,
Problems seem to intensify.
Why can’t you hear my cry?
When life feels like a heavy load,
My mind is going to explode.
Why can’t you help me unload?
