This is my strife

Frank Anthony Cimino jr 1963 (cleveland, Ohio)

This is my strife
Tossed aside my feelings scorned
Others placed rules upon me
Not wanting to have ever been born
I am not them, they are not I
A sea of yester-year memories that still haunt me
The thoughts that still linger on I cannot hide
Reliving the past in vivid lost reality
Here and there I wish this wont last
They don’t know what I go through
Yet, they judge me, my thoughts, and my memories
I did not ask for this kind of life
A bitter violent conflict or dissension
