I wrote this back in high school and only just now found four of my poems up on Poetry.com (under my maiden name, Crystal M Marinaro) so I'm excited to add one more to my blog here. Though I also found a copyright in my email for another poem and I have no idea where I posted that one... *the search continues*
Will I be doomed to roam
The world over
Lonely
As the jackal
Hunting my prey
As it flees
Never to experience
The pleasure
Or wholeness
Of another
No creature deserves
That which i have been
So damned
Broken free of life
The endless circle
Coming to an end
Deriving no sense
Of direction
I am doomed to wander
Lonely
