Life is poetry.  Poetry is life.


My history tells me my life is no lie.
It is my truth, preached to you in tune and in rhyme;
With no time on my hands for a master plan.
Just a laugh and a quick shake of the hand.


The good will out, I have no doubt,
But my lack of faith in myself will always keep me down.
I drag myself up to let my feelings out,
But still I suffer in silence wearing this thorny crown.


Life is not about the destination,
It’s about the journey we take to get there.
My life has been a rocky road that began with such anticipation;
Only now do I see the darkness that surrounds me…I no longer care.


Life is a river that constantly flows,
As poetry flows from within our souls.
I write what I feel, because it feels right to tell you of my thoughts;
But to feel anything else is a struggle, so I shall write no more.
