Fates Little Joke Poem by Ismael Rodriguez

I've become my enemy
In my mind, I want to die
It's the only way to escape from me
And the wasteland of my life

Becoming what I hate
Nothing but a creature of apathy
What is this cruel fate
To bring to such a life

No longer can I fight
I now lack the strength
To crawl back into the light
No, will to continue in this life

Rotting from the inside
The pain is too much to bear
From myself I want to hide
And walk away from this life
