Responsible

Flex 1988 (French camp CA)



I dwell on hate
I feel that fate
Dictates my direction as of late
I can not manifest or create
Im spiraling out of control
And it's eating at my soul
Im less than whole
Those who've done me wrong
Deserve to feel my pain
I, while looking up at the sky, cry
Laughing like a mad man in the rain
Thinking to myself how people deserve to die
Die the most miserable death
For taking advantage of me when I was weak
They tell me to let it go
But I want to know
How this fate fell on me

About this poem
