My Poetry

My poetry is the window to me
it provides insight on how I see

It comes from deep down within
it can be clean cut or full of sin

It is never black or white
but I try to shed some light

Light to help define the gray
to sort of help you if I may

My poem's help me say how I feel
my feelings, I hope you know, are real

Everything I hold in my heart
I do because doing so is smart

but at the end of the day
I write what I fail to say

So read my words close and pay attention
to all the things I say and all I mention

They'll tell you all they do not lie
Poetry is how I'll express myself til I die
