The Web Poetry Corner - Wesley A. Storer - I live and die alone
I live and die alone
by
Wesley A. Storer
The Winter's piercing lingers love
It nurtures not the tender dove
The Winter lingers piercing dear
Leaving Life's random chance to fear
Many people have lived on this earth
Who found they could not afford
To be as good as they deserved
Only God knows how hard they tried
Just to be as good as they were
Sometimes the cards of life fall hard
Sometimes life's rivers run perverse
But to live one's life and die alone
Is a fate no human being deserves
Yes it's true many a better man
Probably received far less than I
But to live and to die all alone
Is a fate nobody deserves
Poverty is the worst form of violence
But I will not work for ath-thoes
