A Poem
Whenever lacking divine inspiration
Just use your vivid imagination
Leaving room for interpretation
While giving life to your own creation
A poem is what we feel inside
A glimpse of us we cannot hide
It tells of all the tears we've cried
And heartfelt pain we can't abide
We often write of a broken smile
Or a love gone lost in blind denial
The words reflect the poet's style
And makes the gift they share worthwhile
A naked soul and an open heart
Is all that's needed for a poem's start
A piece of us is torn apart
Til we release this thing called art
A treasure hidden inside our souls
Released to pen and paper scrolls
A burden that our heart controls
A prisoner that our mind paroles
