Simple As That
I would like to think
I am a simple soul
but that is
a complexity of paradoxes;
I was born
in a conflict between two parents
neither of which desired a child
yet, there I was,
a conception formed
in the incongruity and absurdity
of their love and life's intent;
the irreconcilable discrepancy of an act
with unintended consequences
but there I lay,
birthed into existence
and despite the contempt, the abandonment,
the experiences and heartaches
I live
simple as that.
