Poetic to be Pathetic

its sad but true

It’s Poetic to be Pathetic

 

There is nothing more poetic

Than a pen lying comfortably

Across a pad filled with fresh thoughts

And there is nothing more pathetic

Than a man lying uncomfortably

On a bed filled with fresh memories

 

There is nothing more poetic

Than someone writing a poem

To cope with the pain

And there is nothing more pathetic

Than someone writing a poem

To cope with the pain

 

There is nothing more poetic

Than two individuals coming together

Expressing love publicly for the world to see

And there is nothing more pathetic

Than two individuals coming together

And continuing to be individuals and it is only visual

To a poet

 

There is nothing, in this world, more poetic

Than being alone, confused, lost

And most of all

Pathetic

Poetry encompasses every human condition From pathetic to triumphant but is perhaps at its best when used as self therapy. Catharsis clears the festering sores of past hurts by exposing them to daylight

awesome and scathing... this should be required reading for aspiring poets... the one's who are offended should turn back.
