It's My Life People

as creative as i can be
in covering up the truth
the only truth
which is just because someone else
thinks its a mistake
doesn't mean i have to think of it that way

Wrapped up in other peoples emotions
and learning the hard way
my poems transformed again as needed
to become close to journal entries of mood and emotion
thoughts and perception
to bounce off my own head to understand my own reality

my poems are my life
it is what has happened
i try to stay away from slander
but many things i write
are about me
they are my experiences in this life
my emotions of these experiences
my hopes and dreams
to achieve clarity from ther confusion i believe i am living

medicated, mental anguish, perceptions of world affairs
and how i am affected by them
this is one persons view point
and how it was achieved
may not be pretty to read the whole way through
