A poets tale

May 30, 2016

roses are red

violets are blue

heres my life as a poet

im telling it to you

im not so old

and some may know it

my experiences are dull

and I show it

I love to talk and I love to read

but I feel like my life

is just one lonely bead

I feel broken away and very small

like I'm on a cliff and about to fall

although I do my best

at every life test

as this is a poets tale

I will try hardest at life without any fail.
