Internal Injuries

Written By:  D. Collins 7/4/25


It's said that writers don't read, and readers don't write.
That may be true because I've done this for most of my life.
It gives me ultimate pleasure putting a pen to a pad.
Documenting all the things I want and wish I had.


Just be the man you think you are.
Lay down your stuff like a shining star.
Project positivity if you do nothing else.
Know exactly who you are inside yourself.


It gives it moment to just stop life in time.
Never having to look back and hit rewind.
Knowing what you're for and came to do.
Put forth the blessing God gave to you.

Interesting poem. There is something about the pen! (not quite the same with a keyboard!) J :)

Hello Jeanette. it's that bodily feel from brain to hand (plus staying up on spelling real English words).
