Reasoning

There is a reason for the season Love equals hate equals treason

I’m treacherous in the month of December People tell me in detail things I don’t want to remember

Tragedy of a suicide It doesn’t look like it does in the movies they say Wow it’s going to be a long December’s day

Tell me how his neck was broken Thanks for the description I really needed a depiction Of a moment best left hidden

I am somebody you think you know well How will you know Time will tell

I hate suicide Cowards way out I’m still grieving No doubt

I am angry at you The devil and the idle mind Who am I Now I’m in a bind

I want to write beautiful poetry about love and light This too shall pass Right

I am like a broken arrow Hardening my heart like Pharaoh

Building my structure I will meet you at the wall of juncture

If you can jumpstart my heart The light inside me shall never depart

One must conquer the journey that is his path Until then there is only wrath Too much caffeine Next time I’ll try decaf

Thank you for reading. This was not an easy one for me to write about. I have to speak the truth. Demons get the fuck out. Spiritual warfare. Always been there. I will always follow my Father God. Even if how I express it seems odd. God bless you! Forever grateful!

I have attached a few poems below:

I would like to add this to Ravyne Hawke (Lori’s) December Prompt. You can find it in the link below. She runs a kick ass Pub called Promptly Written. I thank you for your understanding mind. Your prompts allow me to free my mind. To many this will seem melancholy. I free myself with the pen. Each stroke lifts me out of the lion’s den.
