Some may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.


this isnt poetry
scribbling my thoughts on paper
in verse form
this isnt poetry
reaching deep into my soul
and pulling out my feelings
this is more like
journaling
or maybe even
therapy
because for some reason
this writing
this "poetry"
feels theraputic
it leaves you alive
so i guess
that means
that maybe, possibly
this just might
be poetry

Amen, AMEN. This is exactly how I feel of poetry.  This is the reason I write. Therapy can't heal me—but writing, especially writing poetry, can and has.
