Best Poems Written by Morgan Epstein

Food For Thought

Have you ever been 
nervous?
I have 
You get a knot 
In your stomach
And your tong gets all 
Miss mossy 
And worst of you 
Get dizzy
You want to just break 
D
O
W
N
Down into darkness
And you just can’t 
Snap out of it

Then you sometimes
Hide
Beneath your desk
So that no one can see you
You are so afraid
Of what people will think 
Of you 
That you 
F
O
R
G
E
T
Forget what this is 
All about
That you want yourself 
To get some pride 
For yourself
Not anyone else
And the only way to do that 
Is though
P
O
E
T
R
Y
Poetry is the only way to 
Get out that anger
The only way that you can 
Truly be you
