Holly Knoles Poet Rhyme

Independence

Deep in journey --- deep to be blind
Running in circles --- all out of time

Trying to grow to as strong as I can be
It's hard because I am the only one that believes

I guess yourself is all it takes
To set off time-bombs and start quakes

Tiny storm in my teacup clouds my way
Determining whether or not I should stay...

So many quests yet to complete
But mentally and physically too weak

Spinning sand tumbling in the hourglass of life
Not my time now to become a wife

Gotta work on myself to be all I can be
Gotta learn and stay educated and be free!

Free from the hardships all in my life
All the ammunition put in this fight

Too much wasted time for me to endure
Confidence, independence, and life for sure
