No matter what you do or what you did
You're a leaf in a stream
On an endless river of causality
Clinging to your free-will dream
As the tide guides your every decision
Drags and pulls with gravity
Cuts and guides your entire life
With exact precision
It's an unforgiving knife
That cracks open the blackbox of your being
Writes the code so everything is made to fit
The manufacturer of your body and spirit
Knows who you are, what you're seeing
It knows where you'll be every year
Knows your every thought, your every fear
Everything you are you have it as your source
There's nothing you can do or say to stop the course
Cause there are no safe harbours to dock
The river pulls and you're no sturdy rock [comments] => 4 [counter] => 185 [topic] => 21 [informant] => zeberdee [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

You won't change

You won't change one bit
No matter what you do or what you did
You're a leaf in a stream
On an endless river of causality
Clinging to your free-will dream
As the tide guides your every decision
Drags and pulls with gravity
Cuts and guides your entire life
With exact precision
It's an unforgiving knife
That cracks open the blackbox of your being
Writes the code so everything is made to fit
The manufacturer of your body and spirit
Knows who you are, what you're seeing
It knows where you'll be every year
Knows your every thought, your every fear
Everything you are you have it as your source
There's nothing you can do or say to stop the course
Cause there are no safe harbours to dock
The river pulls and you're no sturdy rock

Your frustration comes through clearly, but don't give up, there's always hope for change!

A good description of fate and destiny but since we don't know our destiny then all we do is plan and strive. Nevertheless I enjoyed your poem

Clinging to your free will dream, it's like you are trying to save someone from themselves and your frustration is strong almost to exasperation.
