I write to pour my heart
for you to listen to the strain
the pain that shook me to the core
but poetry ain't bound by law
I write to soothe,to move your soul
let alone comfort your dismayed,
hurt spirit, pick you as you spill it
hold your heart at a palm of a calm
poet
to write to you a sonnet, a song
and a long poem, something close
to home
