Poet

A Poem by Sam Harty

you say I am a poet
I tell you I am nothing
you say I craft words
I tell you I build nothing
you look confused
imagine how I feel
that with a mere smile
the raise of an eyebrow
you push the words
right onto me
that's right
don't you see now
I am your paper
you are 1000 words
waiting to be written
100 feelings
waiting to be had
I lay myself bare to you
an empty page
just awaiting the

spill of your ink.

The muse. The magic that seems to come from thin air, I love it.

Poet since age 7. I love words. You would think as many times as words have wounded me I would hate them but really I respect how words can be a blanket or a sword. more..
