My decision to hold strong no matter what stands in the way, powerless as I may be; perhaps I will gain knowledge as I go on. I refuse the rest until my goals are met.

i am free

as the bird that soars

i am the feathers

that ripple lightly in the wind

i am the wind itself

blowing fiercely, then tickling

the bright green shoots of grass

i am the curve

the gentle bend in the road of time

i have changed my life

my path, forever altered

by my decision, now

i will persist

casting aside the obstacles

i will go on

stepping wearily in the steps of others

i know that somewhere, there exists

a better world

i will find this place.

    I knew I had read it
    Then the fire ignited
    I wrote a poem for you
    Do read it
    You are gr8
    The scorching sun
    In rains,
    Snow and hail,
    Many a heart
    You are bound to derail…

    Hold on to your horses,
    Don’t let them run
    Have fun
    Then fly or flee,
    Shoot them up with your gun
    No not that one
    But your eyes
    It’s lovely only for fun

    a third go
    what luck u know
    lovely poets are born
    not made
    and gift divine
    is granted
    not wanted
    gr88888 again
