Poetry acts as therapy
prescribed by
my counselor within heart.

Verse like blanket of security
allows self to vent and
not feel homeless.

Sometimes tears hide behind words
needing to be released.
Other times phases give insights
on paper to heal
and return to self love.

Poetry is therapy
where office is open anytime.
Where each letter like a medicine
gets dissolved on page.

Perhaps YOU are my counselor
ready to read between lines
to connect with kind word.
A therapist that responds with like or sun.
The reader who whispers a love
carried in either of an internet site.
