What the Heck

6/30/17 What the heck Is the reason for such disrespect And neglect Just trying to continue the trek Without getting shipwrecked I want to have a meaningful and positive effect Instead of being inept Still making moves, taking risks, with continual steps In and out of the depths With or without much rest Just trying to do my best Instead of beginning to stress Throughout any test Situations and work being assessed For more or less Whether it was simple or complex Always cleaning up my own mess And striving for success Before I can no longer draw another breath Due to my own death Mostly made of water, bone and flesh It wasn't always easy to express And at times I only could guess Might as well get it all off my chest Never went in church to confess Won and lost in chess Still always felt blessed And tried to have common sense On either side of the fence Whether the terrain was thin or dense Nonetheless This took a lot of effort, intellect And finesse
