Poetry is an Art


I write from my heart

The feelings of my soul

Poetry is an art

With no specific goal


I don’t write for money

I don’t write for fame

I write for me

My heart is to blame


I love when it flows

Like the smoothest of streams

I can let everything go

Sweet memories and dark dreams


Poetry uplifts me

When I get let down

Poetry sets me free

From the stressful chains that I am bound


Poetry is more

Than words on a page

It’s felt in the core

And can soothe any rage


I write from my heart

The feelings of my soul

Poetry is an art

That helps me feel whole
