A Place We Can Go . . . .

Steps to heaven
The deeper part of the dark, 
Is when you cannot hear your heart.
Step by step you make amends,
choosing wisely, picking up friends.
Store bought tokens take you plans,
putting them in machines that make you dance.
What a country town that drags you down,
surrounded by people that makes you frown.
Speaking words that seem profound,
digging up dirt that should remain underground.
I am just a simple person that loves to lounge,
play the guitar and sing out loud.
But men try to crush me, tear me apart,
By snatching my tools and thrashing my heart,
Ditching my ways and putting up thorn,
Stepping on me and making me mourn.
I want to roam, I want to sing,
I want to fly spreading my wing.
Somewhere beyond life I want to reach,
A place where all rules I can breach.
Where I can be me and noone else,
where I can dance and sing as my heart tells.
A place where there is only light and no dark,
somewhere in this world I can hear to my heart.

With havin so much content do you ever run into
any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement?

My blog has a lot of unique content I've either written myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any techniques to help protect against content from being ripped off? I'd genuinely appreciate it.
Have a look at my blog post ; The Health City
