Why bother?

Why bother?

Beaten, battered, bruised
Alliances played out
Singles singled out
Summoning energy to offer kindness
Only to receive hatred in return
Why bother?
I didn’t ask for this.
Yet do we ever get what we ask for?
We get what we get.
Our mission is to make the best of it.
Refusal is not an option.

((((((J))))))

Thank you for such a kind reply. I'm fine. I'm just questioning this deck of cards called life. You have to play what you're handed and I'm trying to do my best.

This is a very sad poem, Eil... Not only for the person being bruised and battered but for the person(s)/situation that cause such feelings. Have faith in yourself and your intentions. Nothing else matters, really.
