Why I Write Poetry


Poetry. It’s one word that can say many things. It can express someone’s feelings. It can show someone’s pain. When it comes to poetry, anything can be said. No matter what it says, anything it does say is different for everything The reason I write poetry It speaks to me, like a bee does the hive Reflects on me, like a window does the sunlight What is poetry? A five letter word? Something uttered by a person on the street? Something that can show people the real you? Or is it just something that’s there? Just there like a bee Like a window Like the sunlight
