A Poetic Caress

I write of feelings real; some difficult to express. And encourage hearts to feel; with a poetic caress. My pen interrogates pain; trying to describe the hurt. And redefine what is sane; revealing the hidden dirt. My poems evoke feelings; from first breath to Death's embrace. And shattering glass ceilings; amplify pride and disgrace. My words connect with a few; beyond their expected norms. For I share their point of view; through rhyme and established forms. My muse supersedes all bounds; exhuming dead dreams and fears. And my fragmented heart pounds; visiting anguish and tears. My soul pools in hurting hearts as it leaks upon the page. And anxiety departs; from the heart of this old sage.

"I write of things that are real and yet so hard to express. And encourage hearts to feel with a poetic caress." Perfectly expressed. This is an awesome poem, Emile. Lovely.
