Words - the Heart of Imagination

Words – The Heart of Imagination – My original poem

The element of words I compose 
Forming in my mind with imagination
Becoming one with the emotions of my heart 
My language of variant forms

Even with the smallest utterance
I can give you my promise and assurance
And as a two-edge sword I also strongly protest
My words are the heart of my imagination

Thoughts grow in isolation
To remain a secret in my mind
Written in mere symbols of the heart
Intended meanings echo my own sentiments

Words pouring from the heart
Not knowing boundaries to respect 
Words upon words 
Where one word ends another begins

My words can sense where they should be placed 
Coming from the situation of the heart
Journeyed from the mind 
Combined into a written language

Circulating through my emotions 
Then settling onto paper
Softly like petals falling
In movement with each passage

A continuance of words
Never ending route with no final destination
Distinct in its expression
The heart carries the imagination 

Words – Are the Heart of Imagination
