A Poet's Heart

.

A poet's heart isn't like any other...

It's the tears that trickle with radiance through words.

     It's a treasure trove that hides but longs to

     be found.

          It's a book shelved high that wants to

          be read.

               It's the freest of all birds caged but

               unbound...

 

A poet's heart isn't like any other...

It doesn't beat to the capable strokes of the artist.

     It doesn't pump in the most vibrant of

     colours.

          It doesn't wield a paintbrush to

          translate its thoughts.

               But it can see through the eyes of

               painters...

 

A poet's heart isn't like any other...

It doesn't conform to the conventional parameters of lyrics.

     It doesn't bind itself to the requirements

     of musical harmony.

          It doesn't follow the conventions of

          genres.

               But it sings its voice loud without

               restrictions of melody...

 

A poet's heart isn't like any other...

It's an open secret, that whispers in metaphoric codes.

     It's an exploding universe, that merges

     back into galaxies.

          It's a sought after painting, that boasts

          of unfathomable beauty.

               It's an everlasting song, that echoes

               within the poet that embodies...
