Hi Readers! It ha been a while! I apologize for my absence but you know what they say "life is what happens while your making other plans" .
I have returned with a treat for you! Well at least I hope you think is a treat! As some of you know I began writing my writing poetry. As of late I have steered away from poetry and been writing both fiction and nonfiction. Well I have decided to "return to my roots". Below is a poem... Hope you like it and I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Life
I have been happy
I have been sad
I have been loved
I have loved
I have broken hearts
I have had my heart broken
I have been beautiful
I have been ugly
I have been hopeful
I have been hopeless
I have been optimistic
I have been pessimistic
I have had joy
I have known strife
I have lived for others
I have been lived for
I have prayed to god
I have been asked to pray
I close my eyes at night with all of these emotions and I'm greatful... Greatful because it's life
