Whoa, I wasn't expecting it to be that good! heh -_-;;
Actually, to be honest, I felt that way.. shut out.. Poetry is good when it comes purely from the heart, it's about the poet's emotions to words, a language only other poets would understand..

It's simplicity is what I like about it, I took out a lot of things, got too personal lol.
But life gets better or worse, depending on what you make it.

Again, thanks for commenting etc =)
Btw, I'm not that prickly lol life has its thorns ;)

Cheers,
