Poetry Is...

Poetry is a part of my heart

I dare say a part of my being

Without the release of emotion

there\'s nothing else so freeing

 

It\'s not just words arranged on paper

No, it\'s more than that, I say

It\'s emotion and experiences together

in a mesmerizing mental display

 

I\'ve always written so personally

about my life and details, that\'s true

but I think that for me, poetry is

a culmination of feelings I can\'t undo

 

Words are born on a blank page

and my pen dances to the song of my soul

Unleashed and exposed, each word

forming stanzas until I feel whole
