Express Yourself

Unleashing our art,

Into an unknown world.

Spilling the emotions and tragedies,

That bleeds from our very souls.

 

We express our own reality,

And sway to the music.

Letting our pens and our hearts,

Do all the speaking for us.

 

Fast and furious,

The rage inside ourselves.

Screaming from the insanity,

And chaos locked inside our minds.

 

Painting our wildest dreams,

Choose a color of your own beauty.

The fantasies and enchantments,

Breaking through reality's door.

 

We need to refuse to stay silent

And bring forth whatever demon,

That rattles and claws in his cage

And set him free with our own strength.

 

Don't be afraid, my dear poet

To speak your own mind.

Let your words spill out to the world

Express yourself.

"Painting our wildest dreams,
Choose a color of your own beauty.
The fantasies and enchantments,
Breaking through reality's door."

Good write. The expression shows power in showing how you express one's way of belief and thinking.

Moving and honest. Good job with this work.

Its like finding a copy of an old ' LIFE ' magazine and suddenly finding that you are very interested in what is being presented in the pages. One is surprised because we didn't think we'll be enthused. Whether its old or new or more of the old in the new, or more of the new in.....you know what I mean. I suppose it matters that we speak of things again, old or new. A sultry poem bordering on excitement!

Writers need to write of this world with honest eyes and pen. Great writers and men have died so we can be free to write and think. Your words are true. Writers need to expressed their hope and their desires. Thank you for a excellent poem.

Old but a very useful write which, in my opinion, every writer must read. It strong and propells the reader to express the emotional storm in her/his mind in any way possible. I can relate to this very easily, and I'm sure, many can.

Well done.

I totally agree with the message of this poem. Sometimes, the only way we know what is in our hearts, because of our chaotic lives, is to write and let it out. I loved this piece and the overtone of the whole work. I loved the line: "Choose a color of your own beauty." That was really inspiring! Good work!
