Upon my birth, a curse was broken
For I was seen as blessing in life
Whereas for the others
All following the same path
Never arrived or had died
Before reaching the destination
They were chosen
But forsaken
They were life but not
Blamed for the source of problems
When in fact, they were the result
We ignore them, the damned, the missing
Thinking no one knows
But the seconds passing
Will stop one day
Regret and memory will awaken
And the toll will be found
And the lives lost
The lives truly taken
Will outweigh the living
And already dead
“Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.”~ Omar Khayyám
