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.
