Words pour quickly
from the tip of my pen.
Thoughts that flow deeply
come out now and then.
Like a wild beast roars
I can with ink display my rage.
Like a bird in the sky
I can be free of my cage.
I can show the pain
that is tearing my apart.
I can express the love
that lives inside my heart.
Imagine the emotion shared
in a poem unheard.
Yet to some minds
it's just a mixture of words.
There is darkness in poetry
yet don't dwell on the sorrow.
For in the next line
lives the hope of tomorrow.
With my pen and some paper
I can let my heart roam free.
So it mind be just words to you
but it's more than a poem to me.
