#PoetryIsLife


Water, Shelter, Food...Poetry

It's just as vital to living a healthy life

A way to express one's thoughts

Helping to cope with everyday strife.

 

How could you even begin to take action

When you do not know what it is you feel?

What better way to discover your desires

Than to recognize what it is that makes you kneel.

 

With the uncovering of motives

Comes the desire to change

Change not yourself

But what makes this society so strange.

 

It has reached the point

Where people are scared to be unique

But this quality of being

Is what makes this world wonderous, not bleak.
