Integrity

Poetry, Word of the Day 1 Minute

Sometimes you have to lose it

To know what it really is.

 

Integrity;

Being one, whole person

A single face for all the faces

That you meet.

 

The danger is

You change your story

Tell it differently

Dishonestly

Each new ear you greet.

 

Things fall apart

A different you

In each new place;

A tangled life

Of straying feet.

 

Stumbling, falling

Coming apart.

I am a regular contributor to Wattpad where I write as andrewagreen. My first two collections on Wattpad were featured. My first published book Margaret’s Story - a biography of my mother in verse is available on Amazon. I live near Windsor, Berkshire and have offered my services, so far unsuccessfully, as the next Poet Laureate.
