Faith Shaken

Have faith in me you say!
But I've lost sight
of the vision of happiness you painted so eloquantly!

Do you blame me?
Now, all I see is the sadness in their eyes
and the yearning of things that cannot be.

I hear the cry
but I must be strong!
My mask is slowly unrevealing.

How much longer must I endure?
A taste of poverty,
an education no less.

We have learnt
but we still do not understand.
It's too long!

A test of endurance
Who is the winner?
Victims of circumstance is what we are!

The race was lost even before it began.
STOP!!!!!!
Negativity flee!
Your confusing me.........
