    Fate Be My Own

    In the past

    We both have spoken-

    This love is but a token:

    I do not believe in fate,

    in this life

    Our path we make.

    Neither above

    Nor down below,

    Is there a God

    Our seeds to sow.

    We make our way

    As best we can,

    You for you

    And I for I

    We do our best

    To just get by.

    And should you find me

    To be harsh or cold,

    Reality is what

    Constructed my mold.

    I don’t back down

    Nor will I see

    The chances of

    A second life;

    All souls live

    And all souls die;

    Hence why should one

    Believe a lie.

    Hmmm...I had to think before commenting on this one....it may have been well written but the point of it all threw me for a loop...but to each is their own as to the thoughts on fate...you may get the answer some day soon....Kudos

    It is our own fate........ But I found God..... He is real He is love..... and we all can be cold...... But life is what you make it.... He just sits and watches your choices... weather we believe or not that is a GREAT CHOICE ..... He gave us bye free will........... we just didn't become it was done from the beginning and will never change.... , but we change by life and our own expereances..... red

    Indeed freedom from a scripted existence. Hence why it is called "free will" perhaps. I find sorrow in these words, [And should you find me to be harsh or cold, Reality is what Constructed my mold.] - they reflect on me things about myself that many may never know. Secrets that some may never hear. Or ones they may hear and never understand. To carry a burden yet still have the devotion to continue down the percieved path is admirable to me. Motivating. In its sadness. Enjoyed this journey.

    wonderfully realistic and simple negation of theological dogma...religion is and always will be the carrot and the stick for the rich and powerful to maintain their dominance over the less entitled...or so i imagined this to be saying...well done

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
