Dictated

Poetic Dan

Dictated

By time
By money
By bureaucracy
By unfortunate circumstances

After saying today "you'll get a few hours"
The car breaks down I'm lost in showers
My emotions build up, now begins to cascade
Trying not to ask why? or scream "this is just what I need!!
Fighting to not fall to my knees
As the sound of their smiles start to leave

I'm under no illusion
This world I create
Unknowingly and knowingly
Playing along with everyone
Through the rough and smooth
Through the highs and the lows

Dictated by life always making the most

            Yes, Dan, life does dictate a lot, but we do have a choice, we can say no.
            Love your poem!
