POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Fairly new to poetry, looking to work on expressive writing.

Dat Feel.
A feel of all the feels one can feel.
As if the rain's purpose was to steal,
It takes away all the feels I feel.
As I stand up to walk away,
The rain around me slows my pace.
I look down into a puddle and have to stay,...
