The Poets Flow

my emotions bleed like a turnicate unfastened 
my thoughts flow like wine, crystale off a glass end

the words that i spew surge from my heart 
and the shadow of the pen dances in the dark 

the candle sways with each breath that i take 
words flow like waves initiated by quakes 

phrases swim like schools of fish in my mind 
populating the oceans with species called ryhmes 

the light from the candle flickers when i bleed 
as i run the blood of my emotions across paper with speed 

quick with thoughts from the subconcious they flow 
amazed by the words placed on paper bestowed 

lightening fast and quick on the draw 
careful not to lose the words in my mind that i saw 

spearing each verse with percision and skill 
conveying each thought on paper by will 

bleeding with thoughts hemoraging with emotions 
as poets write thoughts they flow just like oceans
