Dear One Without Destiny
why did you come into this world?
why did you leave?
also-ran
in a large family
cursed and unwanted
you lived
trying to make sense of
dreams your parents said were yours
only to find
that when the nightmare began
they were gone!
your screams turned to meaningless tears
the unseemly god
who knew not and cared not
for the one without destiny
turned to dust
leaving me to sing a soliloquy
for the one who knew not
why she was born.
