Sensuous Me - The Poet

I am reminded of my faults and failures
        Every minute of every day
My frustration is knowing I have powers
       but forget to use them the right way

They've been kept inside a protective shell
        that's been cracking for many decades
What's inside, I will not tell
        Till the voice inside me says Okay

You see, I am a poet with a passionate soul
       Maybe that's why my life is so hard
               If I could just remember it's not forever,
       and remember what it means to be a bard

Maybe I could find some peace of mind
        and my place in this existence
                Maybe I could leave those failures behind
       I might even find some confidence

So many possibilities,  so much potential
       So many images run through my mind
                Images of grandeur, some quite sexual
       Maybe it's my people I need to find

      I am a poet of passion and rhyme
                They always get the best of me
                         The moments I write are my best time
                and my best is yet to be
