Suffering Artist Rings True

Suffering artist rings true

most of my best poetry is due

to suffering and trying to figure out

a way out

of this mess

in much distress

I trust things will work out in the long run

and in the mean time I intend to have fun

or at least try to

do or die to

I must trust that things will work out

I must not allow room for any doubt

Have too many rules to make me feel cool

but gotta try to find a tool

to make it all right

without much of a fight

if one at all

I may stand I may fall

Author's Notes/Comments: 

new one...my grandma used to say you have to suffer to be beautiful so maybe that works with words too that she said to me...suffer to provide the truth in your poetry creations...

I definitely agree with your point here.
