How Poetry Got to Me


There's a dark cloud fogging up my mind and heart,

I just don't know how to start.

All of these things are hurting me,

I don't know how im supposed to be.

I keep feeling this pain,

All i can see is the rain.

It isn't rain these are just my tears,

Because I can't stop showing my fears.

I don't know how to express it,

I guess I just have to write it bit by bit

So I write this poetry to see if I could let me pain go,

I just didn't know,

This is how it's going to be,

Now I write this poetry.

It's no longer about my pain,

It's now just the things that come out of my brain,

And now I have no fear to speak my mind.
