For No One But Me

For no one but me. Autumn leaves fall from a tree, Ordinary people never inquired, But, from my view I do see, And instantly I'm inspired. For no one but me. Roses seem to bloom out, Only when I am around, There is absolutely no doubt, Poetry is a talent I've found. For no one but me. Snowflakes twinkle as they fall, They're gently blown over and under, Most people don't care at all, I watch them with awe and wonder. For no one but me. The moon shines at it's brightest, Only when I draw near, I don't mind in the slightest, Because poetry calms my fear. For no one but me. I see this world in a different light, When it shows it's beauty to me, I sit with paper and pen to write, Of the shimmering deep blue sea. For no one but me. Instead of using canvas and paint, I describe color with black and white, And I wait until daylight grows faint, As stars draw me toward endless night. For no one but me. Because I am a poet, What I am able to see, Only another would know it, This is what I'm meant to be. For no one but me.

I agree with Isaiah, this is quite an interesting form you've penned but in no way alien to me. The use of repetition really adds forcefulness to any poem and you have used this most effectively. I've written one just a little similar as far as repetition goes (Forget Me Not). Well done my dear poet.
