Meaning

by annakonopka

Dreaming

Wanting

Achieving

Poetry gives me meaning

It inspires me

Poetry in music

Gets me through the day

It's the reason I am breathing

It's the reason I am going to college

It's the reason I am not lying six feet under

Decaying

I am living

I am dreaming

I am wanting

And I am achieving

All thanks to poetry

I have a meaning
