Fate
Most people wonder, why things happen as they do,
Well I will explain, what I think is true.
When one event takes place,
It affects the human race.
It causes a ripple in everyone’s life,
Though we don’t know it at the time.
When one person dies,
Another begins their life.
It’s like a chain reaction,
Everyone is connected by one action.
A single person may walk by,
Or one may tell a lie.
Either way it has now changed,
the order in which you live your life.
Although you may never see it, very few can,
If you just take the time to think, you may eventually understand.
All lives intersect,
in some unexpected way they do connect.
Life is one big story joined in many ways,
Ways you could never distinguish as they happen day by day.
So you may not think its true…
And I’m not telling you to.
But when something unfortunate happens,
Instead of feeling so much hate,
Try to think of it as God’s way, of working Fate…
