Words of Advice Indeed To Heed Regards Ll
I have come to trust in Leanne advice
because it comes with great intention
and from the heat
And as recently as today she said
Like a graffiti artist who sprays his
wares onto an empty canvas
If your chosen art form be poetry
and the written word
Then spit , stick and pin whatever
comes into your mind you deem
worthy of screaming about onto
your wall of choosing
If not for anyone else but you
yourself and you
And if by chance some passing stranger accidentally stumbles
across it and in so doing takes
solace from it
Then surely this is the answer you seek
to the question
First and foremost do it for
for yourself and the shear love thereof
and if it touches the life of someone else
then so much the better
Because unbeknownst to you in so doing
you may be fulfilling your destiny
and the very reason you we're put on this earth
for in the first place
That being to save someone from themselves
they would never even know or get to meet
Who could just as well easily be a close
family member friend or neighbour you
never even knew was struggling or in a
dark place
