They say a poem paints a picture📸 It's like every word it's a brush stroke visualizing the unseen. I like poetry because there's no room to hide but the truth. It dissolves barriers and brings forth what lies in the deep. Its tenderness & playfulness allows vulnerability to pour out. And provides comfort to let go without judgment. In this world it's a must to put on a tough skin. We even cage our hearts behind steel bars. But once in a while we reveal ourselves through words of poetry.  Every poem shares a glimpse of who we are🌘 For as a man thinketh in his heart so is he.
