Oot! Oot! my very first contest WIN! lets celebrate.. pop the bubbly! Hope you all enjoy..

Contest: 'Convince the crowd' you have cheated and need to convince the audience of fellow poets that you deserve another chance.

convince this crowd of what?!

that i am not as much the asshole
that i once was?

that i am no longer the creep
to sneak a peek of another to whom i find beautiful..
..yet doesn't belong to me?

..yes i have been an underhanded cheat..
been less than romantic.. and cheap..
thick as a rock..

..and though i’ve been caught
i thought at the time my moves were tighter than the other woman's jeans..

..hear me well!  with all this being the case..
..these mistakes of my past have lead me to stand before you all
with this unseemly egg on my face..

…….i stand before you all placing this truth on my very two eyes…...

‘i love this woman who has stood with me
through every tribulation and trial..

..be it she walk out of my life
my soul would be crushed
and the better half of me will most assuredly shrivel up and die’

we have grown together
she being the mature one
and i being the one slowly playing catch-up…

it makes sense to me now
love is not just any pretty face i can convince to give a kiss..

true love is she that holds me close at night
and though i fall short of being perfect
we complete one another..

..im so blessed she has chosen to stay with one as ragged as me..
