So Unkind

-So Unkind-

Time
Some more
Oh please
It’s too late
That can’t be
Somehow
I am here
When I
Want to be
Anywhere
God above
You are
So unkind
Always a lesson
Nothing is easy
Should it be?
Unsure
But quite certain
That it shouldn’t be
So damn difficult
Do you hate me?
A question asked
That shouldn’t be
Faith
Such an impossible mountain
Instead of climbing
I am falling
Further down
Even further still
Will I ever impact
Will I ever stop
Is death the answer
But that is not
Any question asked
Fate is cruel
And so are you
So unkind
No one is daring me
To say such a thing
Freewill is mine
A nonreturnable gift
My one truest God
The master of everything
That concerns me most
Why can you let me breathe
If just for a brief moment
Please
Somehow let me see
Let me become strong
When I otherwise
Won’t be
Give me strength
So that I can climb
So that I can overcome
These words
Meant for the masses
Masking what I’m saying
To no one else but you
So unkind
No reason why
I did nothing wrong
Being born is my only sin
At least the only one
Of any real significance
I have asked for forgiveness
Once before
Many times more
Lend me a smile
Ease my fall
Stop the momentum
Give me the ability
For once to climb above
All that has become
The brunt of your
Undeserving punishment…
