Will The Poet's Write For Me

 

 

Will the poets

Write for me

Will they write

All that I see

Will they lovingly

Craft each word

So that my story

Can be heard

 

Will they tell the story

Behind each mark

And how heated words

Can cause a spark

That can become

A raging fire

As the tension rises

Ever higher

 

Will they tell of emotions

Held within

Under this covering

Of skin

Will they tell of my

Deepest darkest fear

And will they say what happens

When cracks appear

 

Will they tell

Alicia's tale

How she broke free

And did prevail

How she was brave

In standing tall

Her story gives hope

To us all

 

Will they write

That this can't last

As they've done

In ages past

Will they say that I'm silenced

Out of choice

Will they write for me

For I have no voice

 

Yes the poets

Will write for you

For we take seriously

What you've asked us to do

We promise to write

So that others may see

And so together

Change history

I will always write for you....

They say in this life.. you are given a person that serves closely to being your guadian angel. Often we become lost with nobody around to give us guidance and inspiration. Then, we meet a person that was meant to be there.... and most likely there all along.

You serve as this person for me. One who understands stories other than your own. Some can become selfish writiers... but you... you write for others. You write for so much.

Your heart is always evident in all that you do. With the words you wrote above.... I believe you are a prophet.

Thank you..... thank you for your words, your kindness, your grace, and most of all..... the smiles and inspiration that you bless me with every day.

You really have the knack of creating a metered poem that makes fluid and fluent sense.

' Will they tell of emotions / Held within / Under this covering / Of skin / Will they tell of my / D eepest darkest fear / And will they say what happens / When cracks appear .. deep meaning there methinks.

Thank you for sharing a fine, fine poem... l
