Poetry: Harsh

by Becky Gardner

The Story Book

I find myself complacent, when people complain or cry

I sometimes smirk when they pray to live...

Then one week later croak and die

I woke up this morning anxious for the next day

Cause this morning I laughed out loud at GOD...

Then felt the need to pray

I find it very annoying when people question why they're here

Cause then I start to laugh again at the answer they may fear

I will not say I'm sorry for the thoughts I think or feel

Cause life is just a story book, fictional not real

Our lives have already been written, so forget the life you sought

Nothing you question, say or feel is what you think you thought

So when I laugh inappropriately and drive into the wrong lane...

Its not my fault...

The author thought...

To write my character insane.
