A Poem…I Think.

To Write a First Poem

Offers a Glimpse of the Soul…

Where Anyone can look In

And see I’m not Whole…

To Write a Love Song

Is a Peek at the Heart..

Bursting with Passion and Feeling..

Where do I ever start?

To Write even a Thought

Unlocks a View to the Mind..

Open, Narrow, Bent, or Free…

All of the above?..Or am I just Blind?..

The Courage it Takes to Pick up a Pen..

Put it to Paper and just Begin…

Vulnerable and Exposed for all to See..

Ah, fuck it – I say – I can only be Me..

The End

    really really liked it! Though for me the courage comes not from picking up the pen but rather from hitting SEND!

    Triond made me take the “F” words out of one of my stories. You got off with that one. Thing is – people do use these words and if we write about real life – they are in there!
