A poem can be a heartbeat
Or just a simple smile
Meant to mend a broken soul
That's smothered with denial
It can be about forgiveness
Words your lips can't speak
"I'm sorry" written on paper
That solace that you seek
It can be about the sunshine
Or the tears that's in the rain
Maybe a long lost memory
That fills your heart with pain
It can be about relationships
Written with your pain
Built on broken promises
With the lies that now remain
A poem can tell us who we are
Or who we used to be
But most of all a poem is written
To set our emotions free
