Troy Jeremy Nelson Poet Free verse

World Working Together

my life turned out to be everything
everything i hated
no compassion
just give
and they take take take
crying game
no shame
everything plain
plain toast
plain water
plain rice 
plain noodles
nevermind
just watching everyone else thrive
as i cried everyday
wanted to die more than anything
confused by immorality
im devastated
my life is everything
everything i hated
if this is supposed to last forever
and im the first one here at this truth
this is what the planet worked towards
so they must have wanted it for you
no shelter
no food
no love
criticised
and judged
if this is a taste of the sweet everlasting
show me my free will
and let me get out of this nightmare
no money
no phone
no power
manipulated
ignored
you the insult
and this is what the world worked together for?
well if they wanted it for me
they must want it for themselves
sometimes suffering is just soo much better
the only way out
is through discomfort
together
or stay here forever
