Modest

7/21/17 I got to be honest And modest I didn't always follow through on every promise During times of peace and conflict Some of what I said and did, made others vomit Oh well can't win and please them all, I've understood and got it Just trying to better myself Obtaining more wealth With or without help Not always doing things that benefit my health Whether it was done out in the open or with stealth Near and far from any kelp You may or may not have been able to relate to how I felt Regardless of if similar or different cards were dealt I got my fair share of bruises and welts Far away from the asteroid belt And anywhere else
