Poet's Heart

A poem is just a lot of words With feelings tucked inside A sad verse usually written Soon after someone's cried Written with emotion The pen becomes the tool The poems of betrayal Are written by the fool Written in the silence The poems about despair Are written by the lonely Who think that no one cares Written in the Heavens Without a passing glance Are poems written of love By those who've found romance Written in the darkness By a soul who's filled with tears They tell us of their nightmares As they're haunted by their fears Wrapped in pure emotion That tears the writer apart A poem is the feelings Found in the poet's heart
