Poetry

My poetry could always be worse but, There's a point behind every poetic verse You can hear me yet I never have to speak It can better my mood when I'm feeling weak Unlike life I can erase or rewind I build what you read inside my mind Poems can strengthen your heart Yet some of them can tear it apart Words are just words maybe to you This is my life, yeah, who knew? I wish more people just could see How much more there is to poetry.

Amen. Haha. Reminds me of my own poem I wrote on poetry I said "writing is the best thing to happen to me." Which is partly true. Writing really is wonderful. Not even just poetry but yes, seems a lot of people think there isn't much to poetry these days. Lovely write. I felt like you took the words right out of my own mouth. :)
