i'm sorry
you don't like my
haphazard style or
choice of words
oh, no, don't misunderstand
i will never apologize
for
them, nor stop what i do; my english teacher
once told me the most beautiful
words are written when
all hope is lost, all happiness

or when there is so much
love and
passion in your heart that
you can't hold it in and the
need to share your innermost feelings
is bursting at the seams,
banging at the walls of your
conscience
this is my art
though, more truthfully told,
it is my release
a better one than the last, by far
and though the feeling is similar
writing these poems won't
leave scars on my body
despair in my soul
or want of a better existence
i feel whole again
