The Fight

Surviving battles, losing a war I never fought
Through dissolved confidence, unknowingly lost
By neglect I encourage with convincing doubt
Pretending to not know what it is all about.
Deeply pitted in a conditioned flow
Without much care to desperately follow
Unfulfilled destiny by laziness blatantly overlooked
Trying not to realize the flight of losses booked.

Brandy,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
