It was never easy to be me!: A poem 

Posted bymontecyrilPosted inUncategorized

Do you think 

duty is as easy as a drink? 

Do you think 

that you can have treachery cover all your pages like ink? 

How does it feel 

when evil adds poison in your every meal? 

What can you pack 

in your bag of possessions that are always hijacked? 

Do you know 

what it is to live in a straitjacket forever so? 

Can you do battle 

when your strength is a mere whittle? 

Can you will 

to exchange your suffering for freedom in evil? 

Can you have sympathy 

that all this is the fruit of my tree? 

But, in my humility 

I never let down my eternal duty 

For I know that sacrifice 

unlike fame and fortune never dies 

 But please forgive me 

if sometimes I cry because the burden is too heavy

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
