Just Life I got caught up in
rhythm rhyming
timing
how long it would take
for poets to respond
to my post
mostly
I got caught up in
the trend
of melodies blend
worried about response
from friends
forgetting the real
reason of why I write
losing the skills
that made me tight
instead of writing for me
I wrote to please
Now I see the error of my ways
so my focus has changed
I realized I must always
write for me
and only me
forget about what others
may see
Quite interesting! I could have sworn I heard heartbeats in your memos -- sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes loud, sometimes soft as pleasant dreams. What journey did you just come from that caused your sight to blind?
Just curious?

Yes, a poet writes to please himself, and never apologizes for expressing his innermost feelings! If others like what you write....fine! If they don't, they can always read something else!
Go for it, bro!!!

I mos definitely agree with this
poem right here. Most REAL writers
truly write for themselves...
Man... Cuz I feel this one so tough! I can truly relate, I also got excited by all of the responses and critiques. I am also coming to realize the importance of writing for myself, even if it is not as often as I would like.
Be home soon, see ya then!
Exactly.
I FEEL this one like I wrote it.
You thinkin' like me, or I'm thinkin' like you.
TIGHT either way!
MUCH RESPECT!
I'll be back!
