My Proudest

Am I just wasting my time

trying to tell my story through rhyme?

Can it provide me with the solution

to ease my mind and offer absolution?

On my good days I can see the light

but on

bad ones it doesn’t shine that bright.

Negativity is the voice I hear loudest

though it is never

around when I am at my proudest.

Those times are never that often

but maybe if

I have patience that voice might soften.
