How Poetic...


How poetic…

 

My words seem scripted across a blank screen

on the surface of my thoughts.

 

How poetic

 

I want to scream!

That my life could be an open book-

-For those who can read between the lines.

 

How  P

My thoughts drift across the page…

Emotions of past and present and sometimes:

Both.

 

How poetic

 

The world seems to me;

And sometimes:

 

How Pathetic

 

I write and my mind bleeds:

Emotions. That I kept safe in the corners of

my internal memories.

 

I am released and:

 

How poetic

That poetry should be my relief.
