I'm OK

Dressed to the brim, I am Shakespearean
blending in I am a chameleon
Who am I my conscience asks me so often
struggling and trying to be OK in my tender skin
can I make it through all my thoughts of destruction
I need to try every day and avoid combustion
constantly feeling the battle of every day life
The next five minutes will be my fight
struggling to get where I need to be every day
I never thought that I would, but now I pray
please take this burning and piercing day
let the fall leaves blow my way
walking in my shoes is never easy
but I strive to be the best I can be
look up and see the moon and the stars
enjoy the fact that you are who you are
take a breath and breathe in the cleansing oxygen
damn, it is good to be done with where I've been

Hey NOELLE!!..... Those opening lines are KILLER!!..... almost sings itself off of the page.....I swear I thought I was reading some lyric lines by "STING" or something....... just beautiful rhyme scheme, timing, and rhythm in those first five lines......I could write a song to that so easily.......A VERY compelling read sweet poetess!!...... " ..take a breath and breathe in the cleansing oxygen .."........ALL STARS!!..... and....... WELCOME to COSMO!!....... LOVE and ROCKETS!!........T xo. ?✳✴☀
You have my permission to write this song on including my lyrics and I would love to hear it I have had other friends right songs to my poetry and it is a very special and deep connection for me because I do love music. But if for some reason you become really famous don't forget I have plenty of songs where that one came from and I could probably supply you with songs for a long time in your career so keep me in mind thank you so much for your comments you have made my day
love you babe
Noelle
it speaks to the hearts of humanity like a song... I also write lyrics and going to be starting a band this summer... great insight in this piece... very inspiring
I have been writing since I was a child. But like so many stories in our lives we lose them over the years with moving and traveling from place to place. Now as I see these books and stacks of paper and files I know it's time for me to give my poetry or my pain and happiness in my writing to anyone who finds it inspirational. And please feel free to write a song with your new band and send me a video. That would make me the most happy.?
sure when the time comes to record I will. I've also been writing since I was a child... I've lost a lot of stuff but I've gained so much more because I've learned from what I've lost over time. with the band, we will work on the lyrics as a team...
Well let's hope you ROCK! Figuratively and physically...
thanks dear... I'll put my best efforts into it that's for sure. for me it's always been about the metal lol
