My 2 True Voices
I think I now know have finally
discovered and figured out the
reason what inspired me to began
to write
Probably because now looking back on
reflection
No one else apart from you
here kindest of folk on the soup
Would In the actual flesh be
willing to listen or even hear me out
As nothing I could possibly say or
any of my points of view
Seemed or deemed to be of any
value to anyone I knew at all
Apart from certain individual people
who I do not and will never know who
choose to reply and comment on my
poems
Who through the right of reply have lead
me into beginning to believe
Yes indeed I do and am in fact not
only actually entitled to express
my point of view but have my say
as well
Which is both at the same time a
crying shame but also a blessing
That i find myself unless disguised
valued more by other's than my own
And I would be being disingenuous or
lying to you more than myself
If I was to ever say that has and I will
never let that bother me or even hurt me at all
That to me is like water off a duck's back
and not worth loosing a single night's
sleep over
And that must be the very reason why I
am still currently up at 2.43 am in the
morning
Having nobody else but hopefully you
willing to lend me a kind ear
Obviously retraction correction 2.44 am
interview terminated
