Essence of My Poetry
there are heights i've reached,
words i've practiced and preached-
but inside my soul searching
is nothing but an eagle perching;
i have written my will...beseeched
words of love and loss prevail,
in my reverie of death i sail-
the pebbles along the ocean
show my depth and emotion-
i do overcome...i do fail.
but my quill writes from my soul,
my poetry keeps me whole-
i need not a worry nor care,
for those metaphors are there
when life takes its tragic toll.
freedom of words spoken
can cause a heart broken;
yet i write with faith and hope,
for it helps me learn to cope-
in me azure skies awoken
sincere biographies,
of me bring me to my knees-
no guarantees just trust
and inspiration is a must;
for poetry is my disease.
my wounds need no cure,
they are mended by the allure
of my words from my heart,
as my scars play a big part-
they are a marvel to endure
