Hard to say in words
#WritcoPoetryDay

I use this form to help describe how I feel.
The more I write I shed layers like an onion peel.
What I write is far from fake and it will filll you like some home cooking meals.
It can induce pain or comfort you like a soft warm pillow.
Or describe the scent of a weeping willow.
"It prevents me from wanting to to kill though."
"Some might do it for the doe yo"
So it goes.
Mostly for me, it describes the times when I'm low.
When I'm the only one in my boat to row.
The real hard times when you got no thread to soe.
The times when you are just trying patch up your life.
The times when all you see is strife.
Whatever it is, poetry is an outlet.
Perhaps you got the Royal flush or you just have to forfeit.
Either way we gotta play the cards we are dealt with.
If anyone says life is easy, they are talking about myths.
Not facts.
You might be able to decipher the real from the fake and subtract.
Embrace the real and be true to yourself thats the only way to act.
Fill it with positive and keep yourself intact.
Both eyes on the prize and you will manifest the track.
Watch for obstructive obstacles.
Write your own life chronicle.
The rest is subolicle.
Peace and love to all.
Do your best to stay afligt and not fall.
