My Way

With rhymes and verses
I'm patching my way
With words and cadences
I'm filling my days

What I used to keep locked
Found it's way to the paper
Feelings kept hidden
Suddenly are pouring thru me

In a world of violence and hate
I find in poetry a balm
Words that were used to hurt
Are now used to heal and restart

To bring hope and show care
To uplift souls and bring forth smiles
Something so simple but with such force
Must always be used to inspire.
