I love poetry. I love it in its simplicity and its complexity. Poetry reaches down into the soul and pulls out those deep emotions and turns them into images that can be seen by all. For me, poetry exposes all of the shades of grey and brightens all of the colours in this world. / / For me...poetry brings to light that which I cannot on my own.
You think I don’t know what it’s like to want to feel the pain but only see the blood
You think I don’t know what it’s like to feel everything but feel nothing
You think I don’t know what it’s like to awake but still be asleep
You think I don’t know what it’s like to be alive but not living
You think I don’t know what it’s like to want death but only life remains
You think I don’t know what it’s like to want life but only death exists
You think I don’t know what it’s like to want you but not want you
