10)Do I Believe, Maybe It's Circumstance

modern poetry

Do I believe,
Maybe it's circumstance
That people come to terms with.

I agree,
Where they leave you,
It was mostly who was real enough

Because of fantasy,
Intentionally,
It was longer ago and they were older.

You'd imply relationship and enumerate opinions,
You probably wouldn't
Extend anyone's environment or expectations.
Get a diploma and life gets hard for good.
