Poem Number 1000 : Part Two - Could do better.

Poem number 1000 : Part Two – Could do better.

This is the thousandth poem I have written;

I have been looking forward to this day for a very long time.

Poetry took over my life and gave me a reason for my existence;

Now I have a reason to do what I must do.  I must write.

Many years have come and gone since I began to write.

I’ve spoken about my life and death; I’ve spoken about my future wife.

I’ve spoken about anything and everything; I have been honest and lied.

I have told you everything I feel inside

And I am left with nothing to hide.

If you want to know me completely,

Then you will have to read all of my poetry.

If you want a glimpse of the real me,

Then find one of my poems and you will find peace, love and empathy.

Sometimes you will find what you did not want to hear;

But I must show you every part of my soul, including the fear.

The dark side, the happiness, the love and the hate;

Everything has now been talked about,

But there is always more I will have to say…
