POETRY IS ME
by DANIEL
Poetry. Poetry. Say that word one more time.
Poetry it is an extension of me…
Who knows without poetry
I might even cease to be.
It never makes fun of me it never teases
It is as gentle and as soft as I want it to be.
Or it could be mean and mad it’s all up to me.
The words that were written are thus now spoken
When I write, I write for freedom not just for me
but for all the other dreaming children out here
I take this seriously it might as well be severe.
Ears full of negativity, that’s all it seems to be
A lot of times you just have to sit and flow
What’s great about poetry is you determine when you go.
Be creative, goofy, think outside the box…
1234 look at the fox.
Never listen to the haters they are everywhere…
Some are your friends
Yes sad but this I swear.
The ones that are hating are usually hating on me
but I pay them no mind thus their claims are not benevolent,
they act out of ignorance which makes them irrelevant
