POETRY


The thing about poetry is that it calms your thoughts 

relating one thing to another without so much as a pause 

because our brains work in mysterious ways 

poetry tells us we don't have to be afraid 

to say a railing,is a dead thing. is no longer a lie 

a butterfly is deadly, in some peoples eyes

so we raise our voices, as is our right 

follow your own path, and take to the skies

Just your typical geek. If you care to look deeper though...You can see the layers I have created. The worlds I call my own live in my imagination. Creating riddles and poems and lives and characters to become and get lost in. No one knows me, or at least the me behind the blinds. PLEASE COMMENT instagram=tamingofseawolves
