About Me

~~Attempting Life~~ Take this pen, and stab my chest Only to release in blood my best In ink prevails my trembling strife Attempts to breathe over words of life I lift my eyes onto the hills Where my blood and sweat spills Where on earth does my hope come from Where in life is my faith begun When I find my heart inside The place my thought and feeling hide Will my pen become my tool In speaking emotion, as a trusting fool I dig and search to turn up dust And mold, and mildew, covered in rust A different way to find it, I must Then all that seems to be the root Becomes a branch, an olive shoot To me, this pen is all I know Itâ€™s all I have to see me grow Itâ€™s not enough the deeper I go So from my chest, the blood shall flow
