I don't flirt with destiny

I don't flirt with destiny

A Poem by Lyric

I'm being destroyed,
By what I love,
My sanity's,
Taken more, Than a little shove,

I don't know why I need it,
Or why my smooth rides always turn out,
Rough,

If I could push it away I would,
But I couldn't,
'Cause everything's not even enough

When I say things I'm usually bluffing,
But this is truth,
I've been shoving,
My own mind, in the dirt,

Not permanent, but it hurts,

So that's why I don't fight,
Or try to flirt,
With destiny,
I don't try,
To fight,
Who I'll be,
When it all,
Comes down,
To this and me,
I let it take its path,
'Cause I'm afraid of facing my own mistakes wrath,

I don't mean to be a coward,
'Cause after all,
Storms in April bring May flowers,

But I can't,
Take that chance,

In the rain,
I don't dance,
Well enough,

On cloud 9,
I'd be thinking,
About fallin' off,

Never been good,
At being tough,
Or faking it for too long,

I never said that I was strong,

When I say things I'm usually bluffing,
But this is truth,
I've been shoving,
My own mind,
In the dirt,

Not permanent,
But it hurts,

That's why I don't fight,
Or try to flirt,
With destiny,
He never eases up,

What's the point,
If he doesnt flirt back at me,

So,

that's why I say,

From now own,

Starting today,

I won't be afraid,

To try and play,

My own game any more,

Worst that could happen,

Is,

I'll get sore

You're probably getting sick of me saying the same thing on all the reviews I give you. But honestly, I can't give any constructive criticism, except maybe I think the we'll is supposed to be well in this verse:
"In the rain,
I don't dance,
We'll enough,"
But like everything else I've read of yours, it is moving and heartfelt. It has a beautiful flow and an innocence as well as an almost coming to age sound. It's beautiful, I love it.
