Pantoum

I kick and I scream

I shout to the wind

Wanting the best for you

The choices aren’t mine

 

I shout to the wind

It shouldn’t be so hard

The choices aren’t mine

I have no control

 

It shouldn’t be so hard

I want to make it better

I have no control

I can’t take away the pain

 

I want to make it better

Make your life easier for you

I can’t take away the pain

But I can show you that you’re loved

Pantoum is a most attractive form. I've wanted to try it out for some time now, but as yet: nil... I do admire this one, though. I think your chosen topic goes great with the structure. I like the work, as I like your approach to poetic forms in general. Very respectful.

Thank you very much I enjoy your work as well. I was just thinking today that it's been too long since I've written anything new.
