Poetress -10/10/2023

I am a poet...

What does that mean?

Do I only write pretty words
That make the heart sing?

Do you comprehend what I can bring?
To this table, I mean this paper
It isn't just meaningless things...

My heart is poured through this pen and pad;
Most times derived from inspiration-
Sometimes I can bring sad...

This pen heals me,
And the paper helps me to release-
To write these words,
So the mind can finally cease...

-Natalie K
