Mistaken identity…

Stormy was the dark night,
Heavens crying with all might,
It was lightning that revealed,
A shadow once concealed,
I knew then, I’d have to fight.

Alas, the night was forlorn,
Caught the guy, but I mourn,
That one knock-out punch,
Mistaken was my first hunch,
It earned me my dad’s scorn.

Poetry & writing are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
