I am tired of writing
poems about my pain
I can't explain
but at least I am alive
even though I don't thrive
I am
God has given me
the gift of poetry
the ability to see
the world about me
reality
then I can write it down
rewrite and arrange it a bit
until like a poem it sounds
with rhyme and meter
then share it with a few
although I have pain
I am I simply am
