Saleh Ben Saleh Poet Rhyme

You can’t please people

My words might sound to some strange, or my rhymes maybe rough around the edges 

I only write what I can arrange, I don’t need to stand on any bridges 

sometimes I am not in my right state of mind, all my thoughts are scattered along the ridges

But other times I glow bright like a star, or piece of art, in its fringes

no matter how hard you try, you can’t please people even if your words are riches

What your heart tells you is always right, so don't ignore your pain and look at the stitches 

Continue to write what’s on your mind and don’t stop as long as you’re writing hand itches

Saleh Ben Saleh

Ink Empress January 19, 2024 at 11:44 PM Wow your opening line, i was just saying that too to someone, my words might sound to some strange, but they are my thoughts and emotions and how true is what you’ve conveyed here and i agree we can’t please all. And yes i received some silly comments too so i think this is why this poem hits so strong for me.i love the rhymes too here: this is a fave for me. And one i wish i had written for the depth and emotions resonate so strongly! Love it.
