Pen Test #1A Poem by BenyoucefAs I'm going through my desk drawer to look for the perfect pen, you're gonna have to bear with me a little and enjyI wouldn’t hide my mind inside These lines so you would say “he’s smart” I’m not that deep or that intense I’m just the guy who coughed his heart It’s not for you to read or praise It’s just for me to see my soul This is the way that it should be So break that mirror on your wall There is no talent or a gift It’s only how you show your mind That’s why a tear outlives these lines For all around me says I’m blind Why would I write if no one is a better poet than the world That’s why we listen hard because we only write what we are told Don’t pay attention to these lines I’m just giving my pen a test Sadly it writes then I’m afraid I’ll throw it out with all the rest © 2012 BenyoucefAuthor's Note
