1 Year Anniversary on MPS

poetboy5454

Every once in a while you get someone writing a poem about the glories and wonders of my poetic side

A place many of us turn to pour out the greatest secrets of the heart, where none have to hide

A place many of us witness the ink peeling off our screens and bursting with life at its seams

A place for us to voice our despair, our hope, and share our most dearly held dreams

There is not my poetic side

It is our poetic side

This past year I feel with every word I have written, I have grown

Reborn with every step forward, into a brand new me

Enraptured with friends, learning things I’ve never known

Realizing my true passions and taken the path to one day become who I want to be

 

This is not an ode of greatness

This is not a description of our unity

This is a thank you, a thank you for when we were all we had

Faceless yet heartful, all there through times both good and bad

Through my life this past year I’ve truly been alive

Racing past my fears and ready to thrive

 

We are strangers telling tales we’d never speak to our closest friends

We are strangers united despite distance, through our sentence-formed bridges

We are strangers whose words can touch deep within the heart

 

This is not my poetic side

This is our poetic side

        A fine tribute to "our" poetic side! Yes, I feel the same way, "telling tales we'd never speak to our closest friends". It's a very intimate community of people. Glad to have you here for the past year and hope to have you longer than that! 🙂
