My mental release


 

A clear mind, a clear contience and mental release.
Poetry is the only way I receive mental peace.
life as I view it revolves around greed,
rather than people uplifting one another they choose to lower their self esteem.
I would rather uplift another because that helps me to see ...
the abundance of blessings raining over me.
Filled with worry and dismay, 
it's hard to envision my life any other way.
When money is the root of all evil
how is one suppose to find their own  happy medium.
Searching for social validation
"like my picture and ill be okay"
love, hope, and all things said to bring forth happiness,
yet I pray to the Lord that on day he makes a way...
a way to view life in a different light
not just about money,
not just about love,
 but for all things right. 
A  life where the media's push for adversity is not met by greed and dismay 
yet I pray for a better day
a better life 
another way
poetry is my own mental release. 
and this is why i write
