Before the Words
A poem should touch the inner core
Where feelings are only found
A place that you alone can see
Where love and hate abound
A poem is tears before you cry
Or a smile before you feel
A little pain your being craves
Before your heart can heal
A poem is memories cast aside
Before your mind is free
It's often dreams that's left behind
A misplaced destiny
A poem is what you feel inside
That makes you who you are
A poem is written with tears and blood
To mend that endless scar
A poem is felt before the words
And can cause your soul to bleed
A poem is never a state of mind
But a never ending need
