Life

Life you have let me down
In ways
I didn’t think
Were possible

Didn’t ask much

Didn’t need much
So you gave less
Then took it away

Life you are lopsided

Showering good gifts on some
Withholding the bare minimum
From others

You have taken

So much from me
My peace, my confidence
My joy, my hope

You have taken from me

Everything good
Everything that made life decent
Everything but my actual life

You have taken it all at once

You have taken it over time

You win

Are you happy
Are you done

And what exactly

Are you doing
With my stuff

Stuff which

You shouldn’t get too
Attached to
By the way

Because one day

I am coming 
To get it all back
