Most times I don't know what to write
Yet I start penning with my right
On paper I release all my tears
With my pen I let go of fears
Earnestly praying the words rhyme
They do, yes, yes they rhyme with time
As time wears off she, my pen, bleeds
My curled fingers cry, my hand pleads
My head lights up and is on fire
Sweet fire, burning, sweet, sweet desire
I thought doing this would be hard
But I never knew what I had
Inspirations drawn around me
To live, to express, to be me
Through everything I have been through
And simple things that people do
Be that as it may, they, the poets
Such as Shakespeare, who wrote sonnets
And George Herbert, who wrote about God
As man, as savior, King and Lord
They my greatest inspirations
Remain, with God and His creations
Such that when I create a piece
There rests my heart's solace and peace
That a broken heart may be healed
And its soul with energy filled
I seek not to be the greatest
Just my voice to reach the Earth's ends
With my bleeding pen I shall speak
To every valley and to every peak
'Fore I'm gone I shall pass my message
Scribed to future ages and this age
This is the beauty of the art
I write, yes, I write from my heart.
