Let Change Happen

Empty thoughts have consumed my daily hours.

Visions of fields filled with flowers

And pine trees with a scent stronger than the breeze

Enter through my nose and

Merge into my blood stream

Flowing upstream

Attempting to alter the current my heart controls

As if to rebel before the revolution

That has been sparked within my soul unfolds

Into something greater

Than a kid from a family living off bounced checks

Who has dream like Martin Luther,

But speaks like Malcom X.

Hi :) , I really liked the ending to this poem with the Martin Luther king and Malcolm X thing . I can see your a deep writer . And I want to get to that level . I'm new to power poetry and I been writing for a long time now . You think you could look at my poems for as a mentor . I only got up one so far but more is coming! Thanks - Lexie
