A friend wrote a cool line in my poetry group and I used it as my first sentence. It’s about how not letting people get in your way in life. She said she likes it a lot.
Why must wce live in a world full of hatred and jealousy
Live your live
You do you and watch me do me
-by Jalisa IsnHer Feel’nsForreal
But if you close your eyes I won’t mind much at all
Stay in the dark and plug your ears when you’re next to me
You’ll only miss out on how a peasant became king
Petty jealousy of little things while I’m moving on to bigger things
You might get in my way in the day but can’t stop my dreams
We won’t stop
As we try and make you fall in love
With every line, every word, and every letter
For better or for worse
Poetry is to have and to hold
Like we marry your memory
Read me keep me
Sinking deeply in seas of phrases
Until you can look through a skull
And see where the brain is
Trying to get famous
Focused on that mind set
Moving opposition out of mind
As if I’m a psychic
Who ever doesn’t like it
My condolences to you
Your heart is heavy as a rock
Watching mine float like a balloon
In a celebration of people
That feel these words
And we won’t stop
Even if your feelings are hurt
