The Reason for the Writing

The Reason for the Writing

A Poem by Lucas Alton
"

When I wrote this poem I was writing a lot of pieces about love and relationships. I'm not sure why but I always write poems like that as if I'm saying it to the person it's about. The same goes here.

"
what motivates me to put pen to paper
to craft eloquence from the depths of my mind
to take these concepts from within me
and mold them into a rhyme

with each verse, each stanza
every line and each word
making something beautiful
matching them with notes and chords

the pen is the instrument
the words create the song
no matter what I do
these lines will never be wrong

the truth is hidden within
and forever is it sealed
but the wise man knows
to him the reason is revealed

the wise man sees why
he knows that it is true
yes, the wise man knows
that I write these poems for you

I am open to any constructive criticism. When it comes to my poetry I want to be the best I possibly can be while still maintaining the uniqueness that makes my poems mine.
