Everything I write,
Contains a piece of me,
Shining extra bright,
In my poetry,

My love and my pain,
My hopes and dreams,
Over and over again,
I explore these themes.

Poetry is emotion,
Written out,
No restraint or caution,
On what you write about.

So when you read my poetry,
Treat it like you would treat me.

i love this poem, it tells of what the very essance of poetry is, and that to truly get the meaning in the words, you must convey the emotions behind the words, your writing has greatly improved since i read your first poem, keep it up, you should think about putting together a book of your poems to be published, you would make it there, just keep writing, and never stop five of five

Neat! I really like the idea, and I think with a bit more graphic imagery this poem could go a long way. If you make your ideas physical objects, for example, it would really seem to be, literally, a "piece of you." Great job!



I'd love if you took a look at my work; thanks!
