Pantoum

Writing words I long to say
laden with my every thought
upon the page, come what may
internal rage, I have fought

Laden with my every thought
sometimes life can be so cruel
destiny cannot be bought
nor learned in class, back at school

Sometimes life can be so cruel
blanked out pages, I don't like
memories that I will fuel
words I write will change my psyche

Blanked out pages, I don't like
pages seeping from its spine
now on stage, where is my mike
words complete, I know they're mine
