Poetic Justice

Abandoned to my destiny My legacy and fate The timely end of all my deeds My selfish love and hate Freedom of a confined state Imprisoned yet released The condemnation of my life Sometimes beauty Sometimes beast Judgement day approaches As it's spotlight temporary blinds Just who is my Juror What verdict will they find? Out into the wilderness Where my past discretions burn Where Justice deems it necessary Lessons of life to learn I take the cup of guilt held out For this is my forgone fate Strangely in my twisted mind I feel banished and yet embraced
