Biography

Writing music, short stories and poems. A therapy for me. Just putting some material out there, it's new for me. I hope you like it, if not, no worries.

Just Go

Take the leap and embrace the fall. We all fall. From the moment we learn to walk, we fall, inevitably. however, we have the loving cushion and subsequent embrace from our parents to shield us. You're doing good. Take a chance and embrace the fall, or perhaps, enjoy the fruits of your success, efforts, and the learning mechanism. You're doing great. Don't be scared, don't be bolted down to a path predetermined by let downs and sorrows, terrible nightmares screaming at you that you're making the same mistakes. You are doing excellent. Be scared. Be nervous. Be the absolute opposite of your normal self. Take a chance and embrace the fall, you will like it much better. Talk to the loner. The one that speaks the least has likely observed the most. Eat at that dirty restaurant, the one that has old rings from past patrons resting their drinks on the splashed, soapy, unclean tabletop. Would you rather be a dirty ring on an unclean tabletop? Or take the fucking leap and embrace the fall? You are immaculate.

Evan,
welcome to Write out Loud. I have been a member of this site since 2017 and it has been a joy to read the poems of others and receive criticisms of one's own work. Hope to read many more of your poems.
Keith
