Why I write
I Love writing, who doesn't?
It seems, A peace of mind
With each these lines
Im sure everybody wants it
What else would I want from this?
A taste of words, the best of palets
Same ol' story, Daddy gone
Mom at her second job,
But still conflicts at home
arguing over the phone
expressed more in pain
but these words put me at balance
Told daddy,
These could be my last words
couple nouns and adverbs
Hed say ill wait till it happens
Now that's poetry,
leave after a beating, snapping
Have no fear, he's gone
pulls off, music to my ears
the fact is,
this is probably the reason i write so much
The only place where my rules matter
within these note pads, or..
no paper at all, id write on back doors
no home training, would have thought father taught me more
read half i wrote, flows lower than doggy doors
Even when im wrong for once
i have no one but a pencil to repent to
schools out, gtta find another counselor to vent to
i write for those same people i lend food. To
at the same dinner table.
Feeling the heat,
i need a release
i could explode, go
crazy on these sheets
when my brain needs to let out grief
