Say what you like.
Without truth, full of spice.
Imagine, exaggerate and wish.
Not my dish.

Poetry comes from the heart.
It's true and says your part.
In all you say and do.
It is you.

Tell your story.
Make your mark.
Write it down.
In blood and tears.
Share your troubles and fears.

No place for fiction
Or lies.
Remember the good and the bad.
Confess all to the poetic bard.
Relieve  it all
Quench the soul

True poetry is the best for mankind.
Let the blood flow.
It will go, when the truth you show.
Unburden the troubled mind.
Be at peace, tranquility find.
