Richard Tarr Poet Free verse

I'M Richard

Strong weak scared terrified 
by the thought of love 
lonely souls like mine 
blessed with a black cloud 
scars left from the emotional war I'm in 
personally Richard holds up in muddy waters
i live life with a negative outlook 
from what life handed me 
builds strength but makes 
me weak to matters of the heart 
scared I might just find true love 
terrified that it will leave
