I Think I'm Addicted

'Every minute you're angry you waste sixty seconds of happiness'
Don't be riled by others when you know it's not worth the stress

So many inspiring voices gather, among them @Fly10
More perfect words arranged in sublime order, she's done it again.

I've tried to stifle the thoughts in my head
But they've screamed to get out, the more that I've read

A time of reflection has made it clear to me
A simple solution as easy as easy can be.

I need to write and I've found an outlet in this app
I will just keep posting, not put up with any crap

Youth is a treasure but some think it an excuse to be rude
Makes me realise how proud I am that my children are good.

It's been hours, it's felt like my threat of days
But I've already changed in many ways.

My following list has been greatly reduced
My comments to the young will only be to give the stars a boost

The few that aren't worthy of kissing my feet
Will now be blocked by the button known as delete

Four Week Rule

A change is as good as a rest. A new perspective, perhaps for the best. Return to the fold with eyes wide open. Catch up with the feed it's not how I was hoping.

Rumours

Once upon a time,. I cared not for rhyme,. Got caught up in gossip,. An many times lost it,. But I was never normal,. I was much to formal,. I found an app and wrote,. Didn't get hyped about a poke,.

Recklessly Responsible

I have a twitter account, Why I do is no secret, It's something everyone knows about. Was so weak, so brittle back then, but now; I've grown proud. I had friends back then, But I drew them apart.

@leelee101 πŸ˜‚ the Scunderati are an ancient sect that protects a small chalice with tiny holes in the bottom
