Everything


What is it that motivates me to move on? Which aspect of life allows me to move pass the insensitivity?

Regardless what we say, that which makes us who we are is our activities. What brings this to life?

Our world is beautiful, and filled with light. Even when we see darkness all around, that which helps me see are words of rhyme.

These words aren't filled with lies or condemnation, they are filled with truths. The same truths that can save entire nations,

They are what makes us free...

No matter how you look, these words inspire. Not to mention how bad you may feel, many of these words can take you higher.

These words bring a fire. They also bring us tears that are needed, even when not desired.

These words of poetry can be light or dark, they can also be music and art. They can make us see.

The words that lay in poetry, they can bring sadness, anger, and joy... However above all they bring understanding.

Poetry is love, it is joy, it is hate, it is anger, it is disgrace... It can be humor, or greed, or many things.

Poetry is in all we want and all we need. It is within each heart, and all we see.

Poetry is in you, and in me...

Poetry is everything.

I am a young woman looking for the answers to many things that I happen to wonder about myself... Maybe this can be an outlet for my suffering, and my joy.
