At Hatred’s Pleasure



At Hatred’s Pleasure

Such a long sojourn in the wilderness of life
Biblically punished as if by divinity itself
Misstep to happiness, my chin hits the step
Yet I’ll not surrender to that fate

Mind brake that stops is a rejected trait
Did mother or father cast you aside or out?
A parent that’s a stranger throws you into life’s danger
You’ll never recover but all your life fight to be stronger

No tears must tear but, no trust and resentment must bear
This unfair fight steeped in injustice
You must decide whether to despair
You could conform but rebelliousness will be your form

This power within, a dead end street
Until the courage you have becomes indiscreet
Road to happiness thru’ your tunnel of sadness
In your hands looking back, self-construction or self-destructiveness
