As you may have noticed, I've kinda done away with the oak tree theme...it just wasn't working anymore. I may have something new with it now that it's starting to get toward spring time...not sure. but anyway...on to my next installment.

Fate My Oppressor
by: Eric Fulmer

A burning pain creeps through my heart
As the reality sets in,
That all my dreams I used to wish
Have been stolen from within.

Stolen by fortune, fate my oppressor
Conspires against my aspiring's.
Killing off the future hopes
Of all I have been desiring.
