Misery Loves Company Poem by Shannon Wade

Misery Loves Company

Rating: 5.0


Why misery loves company
She sits and she waits
Waits for any opportunity to make her presence known
With no hesitation
She will stir a pot until it thickens with contempt
She will not stop until it reaches a boil
And even then
She may still not be at a state of satisfaction
Her purpose in life is to cause quarrels amongst our loved ones
Causes people to stay in a pit of deep dismay
And resort to being cradled by hopelessness
But she cannot do it alone
She must have a victim
Someone most entertain her schemes
Or she will become useless
And the last thing she wants is for tranquility to greet your thoughts
Like arrows darting through the air
Rapidly reaching their destination
Is the way she casts out her plots
She sets her web and lies in wait
Waiting for one of us to stumble
So that she may ensnare
Without you or me she cannot live
She has no existence
Her whole being relies on the fate of our decisions
I choose not to be made her fool
