My Destiny

The favor you bestowed upon me by bringing me into this world Has long since transformed into torment and sighs. I have always sought to find a meaning in life, But too wounded by the world, I have lost myself forever. Too immersed in my human nature, I gathered wealth from all that I encountered, And then, swollen with pride from what I achieved, I wandered aimlessly, losing my way. For a time, I stalked my treasure, A vast sea of trifles and nothingness. And bored and weary from waiting, I decided from today not to gather anything. I have killed my destiny out of fear of death When I decided not to suffer anymore. I severed the ties of all that was human in me, And quieter than ever, I slipped into another world.
