Dear Life,
Why is it that you are so hard to endure? How is you are out to get us when we have done nothing? Is it really that bad that we were born? Is it that hard for you to let us live in peace?
I've never had it easy. My life was a terrible thing from the moment I was born, and probably will be till I die. I've never understood why it is that you are so cruel to me, or anyone for that matter.
I seem to always be in awe of your power and abilities. You can change at the drop of a hat, the flip of a switch. I wish to know how it is you decide who gets what in life. I wish to know how you operate. Why it is that everyone has a different experience.
Although these questions will never be answered. And these words might go unread by your eyes. I wish to know all these things and so much more. I wish to take joy in your presence. Although that seems to be impossible.
Hopefully you aren't that cruel. Hopefully you can be kind to us. But for all we know you are just a vicious killer waiting to strike a unsuspecting target at any moment. All we can do is sit and wait at the mercy of your palm. As puppets on strings you control.
