Forced Upon Me To Live Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Forced Upon Me To Live



Free me,
From this false reality.
Too much I've sacrificed,
For the right...
To live my life,
As I like.

Free me,
From heartbreak and pain.
It seems to be everywhere.
As if a constant downpour,
Of a wicked reigning game.

Free me,
To have a love satisfying.
Free me,
From heartbreak and pain too real.
Free me,
From a life minimized...
To just alibis and creative lies,
Forced upon me to live.

Free me,
From this false reality.
Too much I've sacrificed,
For the right...
To live my life,
As I like.

Free me,
To have a love satisfying.
Free me,
From heartbreak and pain too real.
Free me,
From a life minimized...
To just alibis and creative lies,
Forced upon me to live.

Lawrence S Pertillar wonderful poem. I loved it. Truly. I have one question as a student in awe. Why did you use the word game instead of regime? What was in your mind? By the way not as a student of poetry but as a student of discovery.
