Democracy in Poetry

My poet is written to evaporate pain away.
My poems are written to silence .
But no matter what's the reason we write the poems we write
No matter if it's written from a source of darkness or from a source of light.
My poetry is my protest towards whatever i am fighting for and it displays a powerful demonstration.
Of who we are beyond what eyes can see.
Maybe this is not what poetry is for others, but this is what poetry is for me.
I will forever respect everyone's voice even if I don't always agree with their chosen words.
But I never want a poet to stop being true to their voice as nothing's worse than having free thoughts stuck in frozen words.
