Original Submission by Renata Fenna

Fate

"Ah, this damn fate!

Why do you have to be so filled with pain and hate?

What are you gonna gain by giving us so much pain?

As it is this world is struggling with agony, what more you're gonna gain?

What does this life have to offer except melancholies?

You want to add on by giving us more tragedies?

This life that's sometimes sweet, sometimes sour,

Feels like this fate just got gasoline to pour,

Using a lighter of misfortune, a fire of pain is to be ignited

I just wanted nothing, but just to be contented

All I wanted was a fate like sweet rain

But all I got was a pond full of pain,

But, this fate!

Oh, this fate!

Want nothing from me, except hate!

Listen to me, you cruel fate!

I have nothing to say, but beware!

I have nothing but a fiery flame in my eyes

Blood boiling like a furnace as I was stabbed with ice splinters!

Calling out "Hey you, damn fate!"

Throw whatever you want on my face!

Because I ain't gonna play nice!

Wanna be in a world full of fair players, not somewhere filled with fakers!

But I've realized that everybody here are fakers!

Don't look at me like that! You know the rest!

Don't blame me for what I've done, I've learned from the best!"
