Be My Friend

To all you poets out there I write this as a simple suggestion So you can turn me down If you find what I'm asking to be out of your reach But If we as poets can teach through our words the pain and suffering of thousands in just one stanza Than why can't we be friends? If we as poets can mend broken wounds with just a pen and a paper and our thoughts Why can't we mend hatred, animosity, and poverty I accept every poet Regardless of race or face For all I see when I look at thee is another fellow poet that means you understand you see through my kind of lens Therefore you are my friend and even though our world isn't quite fixed yet with this pen and paper I will at least try to bring unity even if it's just in poetry.
