Why I Like Poetry


Why I like poetry I cannot say Perhaps it releases the emotions of my unwholistic day. As I sit in a room and stare away, there's nothing worthwhile I must say. As I face the mirror and see a saddened, expressionless face I realize why I write poetry. It is my secret escape to an unrealistic world where I can Deliver my sorrow, agony, and pain. For my parents aren't with me to give me a brighter day... To make it go away... I must face this world on my own intrinsic way. For poetry has given me what others have Shattered away.
