What is Poetry?
Is it always having to rhyme,
To keep lines in boundaries,
And not completely saying it all.
What is Poetry?
A safe place to pour out your feelings,
A vent escape on paper,
And words to describe them.
What is Poetry?
A culture from generations,
A muse for the poet,
To see how far we've written.
What is Poetry?
Hoping they would read your poems,
Just to be recognised from all that pain,
To be saved from your own mind.
What is Poetry?
It's beautiful how we notice things about them,
But not have the same done for us,
After all a poem's gotta be out someone or something.
What is Poetry?
Deep hidden meanings in simple words,
Etched in darker thoughts,
Or maybe hope fleeting away.
What is Poetry?
A key to my heart, A door to my mind,
A place no one shall enter,
Kept away in solace.
What is Poetry?
Maybe a debate,
A discussion ongoing with yourself,
It is one-sided.
What is Poetry?
Writing a raw first draft that's never published,
Or keeping it so real it's all understood,
But it's impeccable, imperfectly perfect.
What is Poetry?
A beautiful craft of creation,
Resonating impossible connections,
It is art in the eyes of the poet.
What is Poetry?
I don't know but i write poems,
They help me express all those emotions,
But at the end of the day I'm just a poet,
I'd never be a poem in anyone's view...
So Alas, What is Poetry?
