My Revelation

A revelation of me... beware this is long

I've been away

or I guess not really

But I've been thinking

About who I am lately.

I've had the time to think me through

Go over every vessel

over every nerve cell

Everything that makes up me

I dug around in my brain

To figure out how I ticked

How I worked

Nothing I did

could have prepared me

For what was in store

I saw myself

truly saw myself

I started to cry.

I'm not the person I always thought I was

yes I'm annoying and childish

immature and "rude"

But there is so much more to me.

I have power held up inside me

With the tip of my pen

and paper below it

I have the power to help.

Not just with my jokes

and stupid scenarios 

But with my words of poetry

Someone once told me

that I changed her life

with just 2 verses

that because of me

She's still here

So I will take off my court jester hat

and take up my pen

grab a fresh white sheet of paper

I will put myself to work

This is my revelation

This is the real me

I wont hold back anymore.

I will let my words flow free

Author's Note

"I'm sorry. You don't deserve this. You are such a special, beautiful, smart and creative girl. Bad things happen to good people too often. You changed my life with just 2 verses.
If you ever need ANYTHING I am here for you. I owe you so much. When sadness gets the best of you think of all the lives you've touched and changed. And think how many are still there for you to help. "

A girl on another website I am on told me this yesterday. I sat there and stared at her words and started to cry. She opened up a door in me that I never even knew existed.

Your words can help others. Words are very powerful and your poem shows how you are not always how you see yourself. People can make great impacts on others and not even know it. Good Job

As always the pen is mightier than the sword. I agree with the other post Job well done! My complimens

This is what writing is all about. This is real. I think this speaks to everyone. Write freely, live freely. Be yourself, embrace yourself. Let it all flow. This was outstanding. Thanks for sharing this!
