Are You a Poet?
People asked me
"Are you a poet?"
Um ...Yes! No ... I don't know!
I've written verses
and got lost in words.
My pen had run away
with ideas that may
surprise even myself.
I write knowing
my heart would one day stop
and between now and eternal,
are only words, swapped
with my life spent writing.
I've cried, but no one has seen
I submerged my sorrow in verses
Am I a poet?
Not Yet!
until I am gone. My words
then speak for me instead. ¶ 10:08 AM
