Untitled

How often do you wonder

What am I gaining out of living

When there's no plunder?

No happiness at this rate

No lovers entangled in fate

No final realizations

On the meaning to life

Just solitary thoughts

Yours alone to share

Have you given up yet?

Have you given up your share?

Of life you were given

As a baby so small

Inside the womb of a loving lady

Who would care for you to the tomb

And beyond

Or so she thought

She needed hope

In a life so fleetingly passing

A life full of hatred

Malice and pain

She needed hope

The kind you have not

Couldn't think of a title appropriate for this one, so I just left it blank
