Heart of a Poet
Poems are written at creativity’s behest,
and sometimes simply on request.
The words ebb and flow,
with emotions high and low.
Sometimes you just have to write,
to purge the hatred and spite.
Some days are filled with joy,
you simply want the world to enjoy.
From a frown’s crease,
the poetry brings release.
From a natural high,
the poetry does fly.
If my words can inspire,
and boost a soul so tired.
If my words bring hope,
in a world that can’t cope.
Then I know I’ve reached my aim,
by helping others feel again.
