My Life, My Fate
The Beginning
His name was John,
but that’s not what I called him
I called him Pepé.
My grandfather, and my friend.
Not always the nicest man
but a great man.
He died almost 3 years ago.
A sad moment for everyone,
but mostly for me.
We were close, friends
till the end.
But everyone has secrets.
And those secrets came out,
nothing bad, just big.
Big enough to change my life
Fate changed, destiny twisted
His burdens became mine,
but this was the past
Present Day
So much has happened since
the secrets were revealed. Secrets to personal to tell,
now my own secrets have formed.
New discoveries, new friends
and old friends. New
Burdens, new sorrows
Today, today I deal with
sorrow. The lost
still hurts to this day.
Not just him, but of others
Many friends gone by
Death or betrayal.
Gave my heart away,
She lied, stomped my heart.
She betrayed me.
The two people I loved,
one died, one betrayed me.
A broken life because of shatter trust
New problems to deal with.
Who do I trust?
No one, I keep it all.
All my sorrows, pain
kept to myself
No one knows
No one cares. The
only one who did
has been gone for 3 years
My friend, the one
who changed my life
and my fate forever
Of Friendship and Death
Of Mice and Men
I read this book
A long time ago
I also relate to it
George and Lenny
Nick and Donavan
“Tell me about the farm George”
“Nick, when will the world be peaceful?”
He would always ask me that.
End a life to save a life
George shot Lenny
Donavan lost his life
I couldn’t stop it
George saved Lenny from himself,
But I couldn’t save him
Of friendship.
Friends till the end
and beyond.
Of death.
George and Nick, alive.
Lenny and Donavan, gone.
Spirits of the Soul
Dark, eerie glowing spirits,
Eating at the choices I make. That is
the depths of my soul.
They represent emptiness
But also virtues
That I am destined to follow
Dignity, friendship,
intelligence, valor,
honor and protection
Those make up my soul.
Those six virtuous
spirits of emptiness.
That is the
true depths
of my soul.
A black hole,
Sucking everything I feel away
Eating my emotions.
And it all makes
up my life and
my fate.
