Trying to keep one jump ahead out of the devil's own time, <br />I sacrificed my only love to the speechless gods. <br />My heart ached from devastation, shattered into shards. <br />I was up my neck in a swamp, wanting out of slime. <br />I'm no longer looking for a shelter, there is none. <br />I haven't put up with unjustice and violence so far. <br />It's not my fault I was born under unlucky star. <br />In the world of long bread I feel needless and gone. <br />Life's an illusion, yet illusory hopes won't come true. <br />So many times I fell in love, but it faded away. <br />Sick and tired to face the same routine day after day. <br />Who knows how longer to wait for changes to go through?<br /><br />Aram Stefanian<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/own-time/
