I have to admit.
I can’t believe
You’re my hearts bandit.
I want, but will I achieve?
I have these dreams,
I worry that they’re lies.
But then I see the beams
Streaming bright from your eyes.
I keep strong,
I look towards the light.
I feel like this isn’t wrong.
I know that this is right.
I will not give up war,
This is worth it.
This is worth fighting for.
You’re worth every hit.
I’m not ashamed to tell you
I am afraid.
But if what I believe is true,
This path will be made.

I love your work! You write with passion and energy and spirit. So much evokes feeling and if a poet can do that, the poet has done something worthwhile.
ReplyDeleteSince you have read a lot of my work, you surely have seen I have been through many struggles. I am 46 years old, too, so I have had many more years to feel pain and be fucked up at times. The lows I have been through were terrible.
BUT, don't ever give up and do not ever feel that suicide or quitting are an answer; they are not. You have too much to say and have a wonderful, poetic voice.
If you were not in the world, then you never would have sent me kind words about my poetry after a hard week. It made me feel really good and I appreciated it a lot. And, if you were not in the world, I would not have read such wonderful poetry from your pen.
Keep writing, keep living and keep learning! Please!
Thank you so much! This definitely made my day. And that's why I love your work as well, Because I can see it comes from the heart and I can see you've had struggles.
ReplyDeleteI believe in taking a bad experience and turning it into art for the world to see.
Thank you so much. :]
