I am finding myself
With every click, with every stroke.
The sound of the keyboard is not noise
It’s a note
To the song of my soul, as the words become a melody
Brevity not needed because the goal is for longevity
I write for the future
To give voice to the past
My rhymes are rhythm, pulse, and beat
I am capturing
Moments, events, culture, issues and crimes
A present for the future rooted in time.
Expressing myself, releasing my pain
Painting my experiences amongst
Hughes and Shakespeare’s
I am gaining
A place in history then and now
For where thou art, there is world itself
And You Only Live Once
