I Do

I don’t believe in Lady Luck…though she’s oft preyed o’er me.
I don’t hold fast to magic spells…though I am cursed to see.
I don’t abide the gods of man…though pointlessly I plea.

I don’t accept your “other” think…I trust my fellow man.
I don’t defer to Justice blind…but I’m not better than.
I don’t submit to base instinct…before I act, I plan.

I don’t fear time or ravaged age…my heart is hale & live.
I don’t despair the grave to come…my words & deeds survive.
I do have faith in naked hope…in that brave shade I’ll thrive.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
