Poetry Is The Music To My Soul

Poetry is the music to my soul
The words that bring about healing
Putting pen to paper and writing
Leaving emotions open and revealing

Cathartic release as the words flow
Staining the blank white page
Helping to raise and deal with all
The bitterness, sadness and rage

My poetic journey takes me 
To places that need to be faced
No matter how hard or painful it may be
How bitter the aftertaste

Emerging from the final line
Renewed, refreshed and calm
Shedding the pain of writing these words
The finish, a soothing balm

I like how you transformed a simple idea and made it your own. Kudos!

I love this excursion into the mind of the poet. It flows so smoothly and lets one feel free to become a part of its thesis. Good write to encourage all of us poets at heart.
