Persistence Of Existence
Stand or fall
Each step a journey
State the intention
It’s the persistence of existence
Ugly skies roll on
Anger filled air
Grabs at the lungs
Silencing sensible words
Reaching for nothing
Is this really failure
Tears seep through
The wall of fear
Footprints fade faster in the light
Running is no quicker
When the destination is a puzzle
Not yet deciphered
Conquering indifference
Is the answer
To every question

I like this piece you put together here.... It must have been pretty hard to figure this one out... After all writing poetry is a puzzle in itself that cannot always be mastered....

Oh I haven’t come anyway near mastering poetry, I write raw it is written how it comes out, no major editing so no skill involved

I haven't mastered poetry yet either... I don't even think I want to... Just more splitting headaches.... I too write my pieces in the raw.... But I am also very talented with this art as well... I have never went to school or took classes for literature either but my pieces are just as good all the same.... Maybe you will check out my pieces put together in the raw too.... You may like what you read....
