i just happened


i didn't wake up one day

and declare myself a poet

just as 

i didnt declare to be born

or declare that i was alive

 

i didnt declare my words were poetry

because

my 

words

were

spaced

so

strangely 

 

or because i rhymed in time

speaking my mind

storytelling divine lines

 

it just happened

 

 

i guess you could say

im a poet

and didnt know it
