My Love For Poetry
You ask for me to write on poetry
On what this literary means to me
It’s hard to find words to express
How simply writing relieves my stress
It’s more than just some words that rhyme
It’s more than just a pass of time
It’s a healthy way for me to show
All thoughts I want to just let go
As I write, I feel so free
Head high, and show the real me
Poetry is a way to just let loose
from all the hurt and live’s abuse
Poetry has become my all
and even helped break down my wall
So let me share something with you:
you have a friend when feeling blue
Don’t hesitate, pick up the pen
Close your eyes and count to ten
Poetry is me; it’s who I am
It might even get me the scholarship slam!

I write poetry because it's my passion. It's my passion because it's my escape. I need an escape because life isn't always perfect. Life's imperfection makes me stronger. It is my drive to move forward when I am stuck, my determination to get up when I have fallen, and my ambition to never give up when all seems impossible. - JG
