To Be a Poet

You know to be a Poet , Often inflicts great pain , Sharing your emotions , Over and Over again , Each interprets what they want to , Putting meanings where they don't belong , Creating their own impressions , Which are more than often wrong , Some say to be a Poet , Is a gift from God at birth , A form of communication , Between you the stars and earth , Remember a Poet has no privacy , No feelings he can hide , After all what you are reading now , Is the way I feel inside .
