the cross i chose to carry..

by tattooedbeatmessiah - Libra

why is it that i was cursed 
with words running around my head,
each one fighting to get out and 
all at the same time?
some say it's a blessing a talent,
i know it's the only thing i can do
and sometimes i don't do it all to well,
you must get sick of all the drunken poems,
the bad women and the loneliness,
but thats where i've been and
it's all i know for now,
this is my curse my albatross,
i wish i could delve into the source
of all those words and pull out
all the nice ones to make a 
nice poem for you to cut out
and copy and hang on the wall,
but for now i guess you're 
stuck with me, the way i am....
writing sad poems and remembering the past.

Reason for writing:

    trying different style--i don't know about it sorry
