Why do I?

by Fredy RoMa0u Sanchez   May 30, 2017


I've walked through hell twice,
Thrice I came out unscathed....
Then why must I..
Choose, always, the wrong path?

If the mere scent of danger...
Is enough to pull me in...
At this point I'm no stranger....
To the struggle within.

The turmoil I have inside,
Is mine, alone, to carry,
mistakes are taken in stride...
And Trust's at the cemetery......

Killing all good will in sight...
One action at a time
Sometimes out of spite,
Others for the sake of the crime...

How then can I wonder...
Why they all left...
As i sit here and ponder...
How i failed every test

    A thought provoking write.

    Our own voice can be the most confusing one.

    Well written.

    This has some deep insights which I can relate with.

    If the mere scent of danger...
    Is enough to pull me in...
    At this point I'm no stranger....
    To the struggle within.

    I super love this stanza because this is so me. A great piece.
