What does poetry mean to me?

It is written not by the pen but by the heart

Likewise, it is seen not with the eyes but with the heart.

Poetry is not just words, but it paints masterpieces with such vivid descriptions

You feel it in your chest; it is a scissor that cuts your soul, it sends a chill down your spine.

Poetry is something you have experienced within

To me, poetry is a great friend. In its hands I lay all my promises, secrets and wishes

It gave birth to the diversity of music we hear today

Even though something rhymes and makes sense it may not be poetry

I like poetry because it permits you to express yourself.
