Getting my toes wet here, should i ?

Question

I ease my mind

by writing poems

in the quiet

hours i spend alone.

It seems to me,

in these last days,

I've rhymed my pain

too many ways.

My mind is tired,

my heart grows weary

of pen in hand

as eyes grow teary.

And then by chance,

I find this place,

and recognise that

what i face

is not a road i walk

apart.

For each of you are

in my heart.

Thru what we share,

we heal in time.

and so i will

put pain to rhyme.
