The Wider Road Of Anguish


The Wider Road Of Anguish  ( a poem )



The path we trod might seem fair
To our darkened eyes,
Yet ‘tis full of the corpses
Of loved ones, as well as those we despise;
Wounded to death by an action or a word
That fell from our spiteful lips,
A tell-tale heart that beats with anger,
This is what caring only for self gets.
A daughter’s place is on her father’s knee when young
And in his heart ‘til death,
Ye not all paths we choose to choose
Lead us to this happy end.
