for all of you.....

by tattooedbeatmessiah - Libra

we are poets
or
so we think,
we write pictures
with words and
draw maps of our
minds and our hearts
so people
can see inside,
we laugh,
we cry,
we write,
we live,
we sleep,
some of us drink 
or
smoke
or 
do drugs
or
all of the above,
some have never felt
the cold metal cot 
of county jail
or heard the clang
of the jail cell door 
closing,
locking,
keeping you in,
some have stayed home
locked in their house,
warm,
belly full,
not drunk,
not starved,
but lonely all the same...
we are all the same,
we bleed red for
all to read,
just some of us
say it differently.....

Reason for writing:

    i always feel bad because i dont comment on everyones work...i have nothing but respect for those who can bear their hearts and souls for everyone to read..
