What did I do to deserve this life?

I did everything and nothing at once.

My life has brought joy and sorrow

It has brought love and hate

It has brought life and death

Hugs and slaps

Relationships and heartbreaks

It has brought me and you together

It has brought you to this poem with no name

It has brought my fingers to this keyboard

And my body to this earth

It will bring knife to my throat

And a threat to you

Does it matter that you have never met me

The answer is no

It does not matter

Because you read this

And maybe hated it

Maybe you loved it

Maybe you laughed or cried

All that matters is that you saw this and read it.

I have been through depression and started listening to an inspirational speech and just started writing.
