Fear or Greed…
Evidence clear about an unwanted Soul
upon conception plans to cast it away,
fear or greed? One could not see a future;
starvation did not kill the seed, fear or
greed?
Why did the tiny Soul survive destiny or
fate; it survived a life without love never
held by the ones that should have loved it;
their heart filled with hate. A life of
oppression from the moment of birth; scared
and burdened with emotional wounds
throughout its journey on earth.
All of its tomorrows’ found the Soul’s path
long and steep; it searched a lifetime to find
out why the anger ran so deep. Truth in
its abandonment never found; the abused
Soul tried to remember that sanity and
sorrow are closely bound.
