The Help of Poems


I am not one that uses great emotions
I never see to have the notion
The anger inside me sometimes starts to bubble
And if I let it all out it will get me in trouble

My teacher one day introduced me to poems
Since then I have really gotten to know em’
Although I should say they have gotten to know me
They may be annoying to some, but they make me buzz like a bee

In my family emotions are not strongly used
Not using emotions leaves people fused
So, I put what I feel in writings such as poems and songs
It helps to sooth me when inside everything feels wrong

It means that I can express how I feel without worrying what others think
I can write poems before a person can blink
Ever since I started writing my poems I couldn’t stop
Especially when it feels my life is about to drop

It has gotten me through all of my strange medical problems that kept me stuck in the hospital
And a family engaged in a massive word battle
It helps me when no one wants to listen to what I have to say
Which is pretty much every single day

I am an avid horse lover. I don't like to express my feelings bluntly with other people, but twisting the words and meanings that I write really helps me tell about how I feel. I am a hard worker and love to help people in need. I also accept critiques on my work so feel free to share anything!
