Pitty Life Poem by Priscilla Dornan

Pity life
Endless milestones
That brings me no closer to the end of this treacherous road
Insensitive ears
Act eager to hear
My dreams
With their minds elsewhere
Pouring out my soul
Watching it seep shamelessly for a port
To seep in and touch
Someone’s heart
Anyone’s
Seeking blindly thru the darkest secrets
Trenching waist deep in the filth of lies
And miss guided notions
Hopelessly swimming in the lake of false righteousness
The undertow of bitter words and jealousy
Tugging at my toes
Threaten to replace my breath
With the whispers of self doubt
