Poetry, a Type of Honesty

Drowning in memories
Counting to eternity
Throwing wishes at the stars
Getting over unrequited scars
I'm afraid to let go
Walking in the snow
My path illuminated 
When my heart is situated 

Soul pulsing in the cold
Everything around me 
Begins to unfold
Running in a emerald lea 
Diving into pages of poetry 
On a quest to restart 
Giving into reality
Honesty becoming art
A type of poetry.
