Poetry

I put my heart and soul in every word of my poetry.

Speak the truth

Or I dare not listen.

Say what your heart tells you.

Take a moment

And let emotion envelope you.

I don't see any other way

We can get through this life

Without it becoming a lie.

Say aloud what your spirit whispers

Unless you lack the strength,

In which case write it down.

Pour your soul upon the paper,

And, if you're like me,

Say that it has meaning

And call it poetry.

Author's Note

It's a little bit weak, I know. But I like the end a lot.
