I Don’t Care



I don’t care how they rate me,
I’m gone express how I feel,
I love to lift; I love to box,
My Faith keeps me holy in this field,
I ain’t the boxer, but, you can bet I’m the real deal,
When it comes my poems; I express thrills,
I mean to write exactly how I want to be expressed,
I don’t leave it up to the world to rate me,
I write how I feel,
Opinions don’t decorate me,
Opinions don't dictate me,
I won’t be on this earth one day,
So I am going to write till my soul’s free,
One day at a time; one minstrel at a time,
I don’t care to be judged or rated,
I care to be inspiring and motivating.✍
