A Poet Nonetheless

A poet nonetheless, a genius
with creativity.
One with such imagination that
every move is unpredictable, even the simplest of them.
The wonderful sound of the heart being
stroked upon your page.
Will that be your heart?

Draining as words beginning
Every word as heartfelt as the next.
Will the heart ever be completely drained?
Will my heart be completely drained?
The pen is my best friend as so is the pencil.
The eraser has many memories to remember
But that have been erased.

What is your tool?
Your friends?
A pencil with its soft reassuring strokes
of led? Or the pen with a permanent mark
as to never be erased? Or even the paintbrush and easel,
the multiple colors of personality in beautiful
liquid, never ending?
Whatever your tool, you are
A poet nonetheless.
