Purge
Words have always had a quest
to be heard.
The demand on the mind,
the nagging urge.
My pen on fire to purge.
Gentle words can inject joy
into the loneliest of hearts.
Words that leave you aching merely
from the pains of being alive
The right word occuring at precisely right moment in time, is the comforting magic,
we all long to find......
to be heard.

It's great to see that you're being actively inspired. There are some "elements" to this one. I like how you convey the dedicated desire of artistry (to be heard), and you transition the expression, using metaphor, to describe the "urge.". I pick up a sort of moral compass or personal conviction of what art can do, as you take direction in this. It's like you're building off of your passion to write, as there are many ideas. Some of the smallest works like these, you can come back to, and see that the wild inspiration is there. This is a good building block. I also like how you address certain emotional balance as you go through the poem. Desire, urge, pain, joy. That really makes your expressions "relatable." Anyway, I hope this helps. Keep putting in work. You get much more "accustomed" with experience.

Hi again! 😊 When I'm reading a poem or book, when I stumble upon words that ever so perfectly describe what I feel, it deeply resonates. It makes me happy to hear my words are relatable. I want to express the difficult nuances in say emotion for those who can't put it into words. Many a day a book has made me feel not so alone.
I like what you said about a smaller work containing wild inspiration. Thank you for reading and all the nice things you said.

Yeah, that's another great point I forgot. The pursuit of expressing the inexpressible. You hit the nail on the head. I've developed such a knack and tendency myself. My own observation and definition. as a book smarts and logically rational person, as well as visual imagination, and emotional standpoint as an artist. To convey an aesthetic or thought is really an important part in language and communication, and language and communication are an important part of relationships and life. There are many things that are difficult to describe. Creates room for unique, original, and individual personality development. I, too, share this pursuit with you. I've had those same thoughts - wanting to put words to something that you supposedly can't. That's just what makes us writers. Anyway, I'll see you around.

Yes, conquering the inexpressible. I feel a poem coming, lol. Thanks for sharing that. All of us writers share so many of the same struggles and joys.
Have a great night.

Sooo resonant and wholly understood.
I can feel each line's emotional gravitas and weight, which makes for a poignant and well executed poem, dear lady.
Fantastic work and stellar inspirational choice. She's masterful and absolutely top notch!
