Insight

Though I tried my level best,
Luck has eluded me, often
though I show gratitude
people turn their backs, often
presence of a soul avoided for reasons
fall of a star sought, often
people obeyed for the power possessed
relations suppressed upon wish, often
fill in the blanks in a life form
some blanks remain unfilled, often
while standing in a sleek foyer
linger disconcerting thoughts, often
wrote: I wrote my heart out
some feelings remain untold, often
play by your rules, as you like
gamers and cheaters fail, often.
