Poetry

Poetry is more than words that rhyme
Its an emotion thats heart felt with every line
Words that mean more to some than others
And words that touch fighters as well as lovers

 

Yet some abuse the power of the beauty
That Poetry was meant to bring
They put words together and suddenly think
That they too have talent for this "thing"

 

A fling to them but a life long love for us
They stomp on her name yet we vow to her
We spill out our hearts for her to adore
Because she's one with us in this cold world

 

They say they can write, they call themselves Poets
They put down a few words yet the truth, we know it
They're mocking her name they don't know she's real
They can't see within her is everything we feel

 

Its a lifestyle to us yet a hobby to them
We do this to breathe, we do this to live
Poetry is our life, and we love her so
And we can't stand the frauds who don't know
The beauty, the meaning, and the love within her flow.

Poetry comes in all forms. Some understand the meaning more than others. Some can't find that "relation" to words. Words serve as emotion to people that appreciate them. Language is one of the most powerful things we have been given.

This was well written... the rhyme wasn't too forced... it flowed well. You put your mentality in this one to open the eyes of others to reveal that you truly are a poet.

Bless!

Amazing personification of something we love so deeply! Thank you for this dedication to one that lifts us to a world few can enter, and who sustains us through dark waters... Excellent!
