TRYING MY BEST

mad hippie poet 1974 (new jersey)

Free verse
I never want to go back there again, those places were never meant for me, I am trying my best to continue this newfound dance. how do I have the music play when I am asking myself how I will make it through another day?


I can go back to the days when I hid underneath a bottle and let the drink tell my story. they are trying to shove not knowing that I am stronger and I am going to push back. give me a minute to get my thoughts together, give me some time before I lose my mind.

I am in another fight for my life and all those things that I worked for and not those things that I thought I deserved. go ahead and try to take them all from me. I have no fear I have been through hell and back so I am trying my best
