I've Done It

I know about struggle and pain, the scars remain

from wantin' change, stayin' the same

passin' the blame, playin' the game

chasin' the fame, havin' no shame

I've done it.

I know about love and respect

I recollect hurt and neglect, cause and effect

not what you expect, coming correct

serve and protect, last I checked

I've done it.

I know about you and me, our destiny

what we could be, happy

alive and free, makin' memories

I've done it.

I know about this and that, when I look back

tit for tat,  all that crap

from where I'm at, it's in the past

I've done it.

I'm left to wonder, Keely, if you're as jaded as you might seem(?), but in as much that you seem to resist responding to reviews, I'm guessing I'll have to be content to keep wonderin'. 😏
Wondering, too, if you read this or will ever know that I take time to read your splendid poetic offerings.

Just in case, I'll leave sayin' how very much I've enjoyed reading You! ⁓ Richard 🍃

Great use of rhythm and rhyme to express your feelings.. sometimes we just need to say it.. we have done it, we are over it.. now time to move on. Great job here, KeelyJane

You enjoy playing with words and rhyme.. I enjoy reading it.. ty. Rose

I'm not sure if this poem was meant to be a confession or just a statement of I've been there and done that and now I don't have anything left to learn...
Maybe just a snap shot of life so far...
It felt genuine.

this reads really well and fast like a race...had to read it again a couple times

Eminem might be after this one! It's better than any of his for sure. I love the attention to form and sustained focus. Excellent.
