Sickness


Poetry is different

Weird, no definition

Nothing like school

It's a unanswerable question

Unanswerable meaning

 

Poetry is scary

Feelings out

For the world to see

To find yourself

Poetry is you

 

The real you has demons

Hiding in your closet

Secretly the real you

Poetry is trying

To show the real you

 

Poetry is an sickness

An infection

Everyone you know carries it

They pass it

Infecting everyone

 

The only way to get rid of it

Is the stubborn eyes

Refusing to see the poets

Bring their hearts out

Only looking around the world around them

 

Poetry is easy to catch

People ask how i caught the bug

I read a poem bout the life of a little girl
