Fighting The Fate Poem by shell Zane

It happens at conception
The sins of our fathers
And their deception

Our fate lay ahead us
A well traveled road

We pretend we have the power
Over our decisions
To give away our love and
Overcome the confusion

The path so beautifully
Stretched before us
We walk down it with good intentions

Until we find the fork in the road
We thought we had our own convictions

The pain we all feel in the end
Is nothing more then giving in
So although we thought good thing would come
We opened our eyes and saw the sun
Not as bright some would say but
We all stared and stayed

For what else would we do
Hide our fathers sins and run away?
