A few words written
Let others see into your soul
Troubled times and tribulations
Somehow rhymes with them that know
For the sentences of your life
From a chosen one will touch a few
When you share with ones that care
Seems they can relate to you
So sharpen your pencil
And throw down your soul
Word for word may you not hesitate
For times awaiting, hearts are breaking
They need to know that you can relate
Memorize the memories
As you often have in the past
Spill them out and write them down
Hurry, for these may be your last
For time waits for no one
And certainly not for you
So give it all and then some
Till the night turns to day anew

I think that this is a great poem. Keep writing because I have ran out of Your poems to read.

Nice poem. I understand the need to write down memories before we forget them...and hopefully, others can relate and understand. Good read, Dennis.

This is cute. A writer's effort in spilling it all out.
