Would I change life?

Sit down for a sec
Let's think about what we get
Give me a minute to think
About life on the brink

I don't find it appealing
I don't want to survive on illegal dealings
The life I have at the moment is relatively comfortable
I don't wanna lose the things I acquired with bruises

I don't see myself going away
Just to return empty handed one day
I plan on making my life great
I will alter my own fate

I won't let anyone else decide
How I should spend my time
I'll be more than glad to fight
'Cause this life's one I don't wanna leave behind

Your way with words makes my mind sway in meditation! Question is how do I get this good? :D

Am I close? https://steemit.com/poetry/@tezmel/an-ex-con-s-cry #teameastafrica :)

I'm not sure if I'm good, I only started writing poems about 4 months ago... I guess it's just reality and meaning that makes it good.

Maybe. Or maybe you are good at it. Either way, many would agree you deliver.

Thank you XD
