Lonely Road Of Self Pity

The paths I walk

and the choices I make

decide my immortal being

Destined to spend

the rest of my life alone

without a single solitude

Plunged into emptiness

and denied by life

as to how my fate will begin

I will fail miserably

in my desperate attempt

to find my happiness

This lonely walk of pity

and deepest shallow thought

soon to come to an end

Life and what follows it never cease to astound me in their arcane wonder. True, if you believe that life is lived in a cycle, with death being an end, the choices you make do dictate, perhaps, just where you will belong in eternity. However, I find that I think more of death as nonexistent, that life just continues on for your soul when it has reached its full capacity in physical, bodily form. I saw this in these wonderful words.

Write on,

I think that this is rather good we all have paths to take and some are the hardest paths we have to deal with just getting through another day when you have so much on you and the feeling of ugh I cant do anymore is enough to discourage the strongest person great write be well
