Life experience can only be gained,
When one owns their mistakes,
When one owns their successes,
When one owns their failures,
When one owns their responsibilities,
When one owns their limits,
When one owns their right to eat humble pie.
Own these things and you will find a rich vein of life,
That surpasses earlier expectations of what one needs to own,
To give one a sense of self worth,
That enables one to look back with few regrets and less guilt,
Over a life that always had room for improvement.
eating humble pie
adding mud and parasites
sprinkling lots of drizzle and grey cloud matter
including many pinches of regret
indulging on the unfortunate bitterness of my modern reality
wasting napkins and paper towels unnecessarily
wishing for the refreshing flavors of you
knowing that losing you is poison to the life of my soul
letting the monsters win the battle
Now I feel like I'm one of the silent majority
Like I'm that person who's eating humble pie
Though bitterness eating away inside of me
And now I'm starting to crumble, all I do is cry
Expressing one's self in words, it's not as easy
But then trying to talk I do mumble, yes that's I
Getting myself into a right state getting panicky
But then I suppose a bit of a wombale that’s why
Sometimes I don’t choose my words that carefully
Trying to rumble tall yeah there’s no word of a lie
But right now these times just seem so scary
And as like always I stumble though ,I do try!
Again another little interpretasion of ones self expressing
another side in same vain as other writes older wonder
ect i was trying here to be clever with wording still wanting to
add extra verse perhaps in future I will do
