lesson learned

This journey i've been through, I've fell but also grew

I've lost but also won, this battle just begun

mistakes I purposly made, didn't have to give but I gave

didn't have to see but I saw, and yes i payed the cost

and yes it was my lost
 
now I have to look up to the boss, my God forgive my faults

The knots that I've been in, and to think my friends were my friends

and to think my crew was my crew, God forgive me because I knew

I knew what i was doing, just didn't have the courage to stop

I was putting on an image that i knew i was not

i did it for him, sombody who i thought cared

from now on im doin things for me, to myself I sweared

so as i look back its just a lesson learned

my esteem at that time i lost, but my respect for now i earned

Hey Jas nice lesson and a flowing, rhythmic style. I like that you stick up for yourself. You go girl and keep on posting poems! Ginga

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
