Character
A love that walked away
A loved one whom time took away
The home you built ravaged by life
The pain of being apathy's wife
A child who never fit in
A dinner plate that was never full
What do you know about any of that?
All empty nights
When loneliness becomes life
The hurt of dignity snatched
A world of scorn and humiliation felt
A life deemed unfit and tainted
The hunger that gnaws
Do you know about any of that?
Pain
Grief
Suffering
Wise men say it builds character
But I do hope
You know nothing of that...
