We Need Your Help!

We ensure that our young creators are fairly paid for their work, but all the content on VoiceBox remains free for you to enjoy on a safe, ad-free platform. To keep it this way, we rely on the generous support from readers like you.

Please consider making a donation, no matter how small. Every penny goes directly to supporting young creators, and it only takes a minute of your time. Thank you!

The Enigma of Fate

The meticulous eye of the neonate
In this world a guest, a guest of fate

Sentenced for life in this nebulous world
To desire a leave, it was too late

He found himself in an abysmal maze
He lived his life, in search of a gate

He found acceptable the world to live
The absurdity of life, somewhat great

He found the worldly things to his taste
The thought of an end, it had to wait

And one day, was dealt the coup de grâce
It felt cliché, the enigma of fate
