I Write From My Heart

It may float around in my head for a few days or so
Before I let the ink flow on what I want to say
When it is ready I will know
It can be demanding, always on the go
Not sure why, it just happens that way
Like a seed, needs some time to grow

Very seldom do I write from my head
It is better when I write from my heart
About some of my yesterday's that were not so good
I wish that I could get them out of my head
So I could give this old life a fresh start
You never know, have to knock on wood

Very seldom do I have "writer's block"
I have to much remembering to forget
Have many nice things that I want to write about
In order to vent, I write around the clock
And it has not let up yet
Sometimes it makes you want to scream and shout

Like life, you are going to have the good with the bad
I have had them both along the way
Something like being, "street smart"
I like to be happy, not all that mad
Good Lord Willin, it will happen someday
That is why I write from my heart
