Fate

Falling down, deeper, sinking into the painful abyss.
Is this meant for me?
Or have I simply taken the fall for someone else?
Tell me, my friends, have we grown apart?
Our lives have changed so much from our past and we seem not to remember what we meant to each other.
Is this how it ends?
Am I to accept another man's fate, or shall this be my own?
Tell me, my friends, why have we allowed the venom to spread through our veins?
Why have we turned against our allies and welcomed our enemies, leading us to our own demise?
Why have we let this greed, this hatred consume us?
How could we turn against each other in a time of great need? Why must we quarrel?
Why must we allow this disease take us, locking us away in its cold tomb without a return?
How shall we live?
How shall we die?
We may never answer this question, for every man has a different fate.
But shall you choose to accept it, or steal anothers away?
