To rhyme or not to rhyme ?
this question in my mind
restrictions to my feelings
in words yet unassigned ?
Should verse be granted freedom
to wander where it will ?
Should I loose the depth inside me
release unshackled quill ?
Does cliché know its cliché
when it hides within a line ?
Or is it simply truth
unwelcomed yet benign ?
As I wander through a poem
my thoughts are mine alone
this verse that lives inside me
these feelings yet unknown.
So read it as you will
agree or disagree
with honesty, unthinking
these words you see are me.

Most writes come to me in rhyme also....lol...I force myself to do at least half of my works in free-write, though.
Nice flow to this. A theme I've seen before, but this was nicely done.
best wishes in the contest.
