Words I Couldnt Say

I never thought i would write poetry,
I still dont understand if what im writing is poetry,
all i was doing was simply penning down my feeling and thoughts
on a piece of paper on a daily basis, but not a diary.
because these are some of the words 
that i will never say, but i can write them down.

these all changed when someone saw something in wrote.
they took intrest in what i was writing,
and asked me when i started writting poetry, 
but i replied that i do not write poetry,
but what they saw, to them was poetry.
and so in started regarding my writting as poetry sometimes.

it really feels good to share your feelings and thoughts
with other people.
thoughts that comes from within as is poetry.
letting your feelings to the world makes you hopeful,
it brings another reason to believe again, 
it gives a sense of selfworth
