A man who was always down in the dumps,

Believed life was full of endless bumps,

He'd complain and he'd mope,

And say there's no hope,

But deep down he knew he could overcome.

About the Creator

R.Freya

Poetry is my soul's language, and I wield words like a paintbrush. From heartbreak to hope, I capture emotions and spin them into verse.
