Such Sad

Such Sad in your Eye
                                                           As one is ready to leave
                                                           A Mother's womb
                                                           From Time's winter Eve
                                                           Starting anew at 0
                                                           Ready to experience Short-comings
                                                           By the early age of 5(yet barely Alive)
                                                           Young peers are thrown at you
                                                            Bullies to pin us down
                                                            Mock now
                                                             Tease which hurts
                                                            It embodies the cruelty
                                                            of this Stage all around
                                                             Exclaiming that WE are just a Clown
                                                              Piss-ants,by the age of 20
                                                             Harboring only allusions of  Helping the Needy
                                                             Instead of serving ourselves
                                                             And when 40 is close at hand
                                                             You and I are tired and withdrawing
                                                             For today and forever
                                                             God is just a Friendly three letter voice
                                                             Pointing out the fact:
                                                             YOU,AS MY 1,243,678,000BORN
                                                             DO,INDEED,HAVE A CHOICE
                                                             "amen" to that!!
