I Wonder

PoetryA Requiemwage slave

Dec 21

Written By Zachary Phillips

I wonder
If my role here
Is to sacrifice myself
For others

No one
Gets out alive
So why not give
What I have?

Perhaps
In doing so
I’d find
My purpose

This poem is from the book A Requiem For What Could Have Been: Poetry For The Broken
