Assert your freedom of expression.

Emotion defined its existence

Its mystery is expressed by intelligence

Feel free and find your voice in the midst of adversity

Listen to the voice within and defy the charms of gravity

Express what you felt whether it is shameful or hot

You may impose on your self the art of rhyme or you may not

Poetry is about individuality, is it not?

Rest assure that your voice be heard whatever path you choose

I marvelled and took the path less travelled

Listen, reflect and feel the messages behind every heart beat

We may go on different directions but on our destination we shall meet

Let go of your worries and relish the good memories

Don’t be sorry but be inspired by thousands of stories

Angels? Nay, we are but men with wits

Finding a better way to express bits by bits

Through weakness our might can be manifested

Though battered but you’ll never find us wince

I poured my emotions into this cup of prose

intelligence merely put those words in place

It’s emotional, simply irrational

He who have invented poetry must have understood women

Capture this moment and seize the day!

When this moment will come to pass, we may never find another one like this

Undertones may change but we will not deflect from our purpose

To express, not to depress

I have served my purpose

Emotions are expressed hidden between those lines, can you see?

Poems are made by fools like we

Don’t mind the grammar, it’s poetic license.

    I am a true believer of expressing thoughts in articles and poems..You can read Write your Heart Out, another article of mine, which voices the same opinion. Thanks for sharing valuable insight!

    We do take poetic license with our grammar, don’t we? Yet it helps paint the picture. I enjoyed this read.

    “Poems are made by fools like we” That they are, but I happy to be a part of the we.

    ‘He who invented poetry must have understood women’ That could be taken to mean so many things….
