Funny, I’ve been writing <br />For a very long time. <br />I’ve written about love <br />I’ve written about hate <br />I’ve written about war <br />I’ve written about peace <br />I’ve written about snow <br />I’ve written about time <br />I’ve written about the meaning <br />Of my death. <br />And I’ve written some lines <br />That I should have erased, <br />I’ve written about running, <br />And leaving this place. <br />I’ve written a thousand words <br />Trying to understand men <br />And another thousand <br />To understand sin. <br />But mostly I write <br />To understand life <br />To feel what its for <br />To know what is right. <br />And the few more words <br />That I have In my pen, <br />Is all I have; <br />My poems and my friends.<br /><br />Sandra Osborne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-little-more-poetry/
