Silver Linning
Its awesome to have a silver lining, sometimes its hard to see it shinning, but when trouble is about
I
always find myself rhyming, finding an excuse to smile. Its all about the trials and tribulations, how
we work past all the implications, letting you imaginations run wild. Been doing it since I was a
child, started as mild,story telling, spelling out my surrounding. Then I learned how to rhyme and
every sentence felt astounding. Rounding up all my troubles, expressing them in subtle, word play.
At the end of the day, if i can get it out on paper it will be ok. Something about the way it makes me
feel, like a meal for my soul. Helps me control the emotions, like this paper and pen is a potent
potion for pleasure, then I learned how to incorporate it in a musical measure. So others can bask
in the
clever treasure that takes off some of the pressure of my circumstance. Iv had to switch up my
stance and dance with many occupations all while getting my education. All this rhyming is the only
way I have been able to hold preservation. Each word or sentence brings a sense of restoration.
After every storm there is always a beautiful day waiting. I know lifes troubles can be irritating, and
they may leave us hating, feeling like there is no way of escaping a grim future. its hard to feel so
sure of yourself. Bad luck likes to melt the foundations of hope,id say half of life is learning to cope
with the setbacks. Id like to think im awesome because I have the best way to react, in the most
harsh habitat. From the oil field to serving a hot meal. I let these poems steal my doubts and re-
route my thoughts process, im awesome because even in a toxic place I can save face. And
meditate with grace. Like i always have an ace in the deck, even if I don't earn the respect of a
scholarship. I know I will always be able to regain my grip, threw every hardship. The trick is to
have a silver lining, even if it is simple rhyming ..........
