Dealt The Wrong Hand

Someone who takes over their life after hardships throughout it.

All her life

She's been given

The short end of the stick

But now

Its her time

To shine,

She doesn't want to live this way

Tired of being dealt the wrong hand

So she puts on her poker face

So you won't see the pain she's endured

Because she wants to win

And finally take control

Of the wrong hand

That's been dealt to her

To finally win in the game of life

Even after being dealt the wrong hand

Author's Note

If you keep pushing forward you can always come out on top in the end.

Another masterpiece rolls off of your quill, showing all your certain skill, and some knowledge this does instill. Your writings amaze and astound, with words of wisdom to be found, and wit and humor doth abound. Keep the muse rolling me friend, peace and blessing I now send, Reading your works until the end

Amen to that!
The struggle you write about...it sounds so real. Probably because it is.
Well written poem.
