Biography

From Texas and starting writing songs when I was younger,I kept them kinda private.Just now started sharing my poems I am from Texas we are not really know for showing our sensitive side.Also I am starting to have an interest in maybe writing a book,so I started one.I'm about 3 chapters deep,and I haven't told a soul except my son who kinda don't know if I'm pulling his leg or not.I figure when I'm done,I'll let someone read it and not tell them I wrote it for an honest critique.

Samples

_________________Gone_____________________ Would they notice if I was gone. It sounds just like a country song. If they did would be relief? Or anger,grief,or disbelief. Was I loved before my final rest? Be nice to know and not to guess. Would they speak on my behalf? Would they cry? Would they laugh? Or would it be an average day? Close the box and walk away. Well I had feelings and a soul. Even brains,or so I'm told. I even had a stupid phone. That never rang and felt alone. If back's and text is all I get. Should not I feel some regret? This all cause I hurt myself could'nt move. While working midnights afternoon. Four long years in bed with pain. Begging GOD to take away. Thankful for my fam and friends Who should stand beside me to the end They have my back right or wrong Or so I thought That's why I'm gone. A thousand minutes in every day Would have taken one. To check on me.......
