My emotions are as deep as the deepest ocean

My passion is as untamed and wild as the wind

I am a broken poet that loves a good storm

That enjoys walks in the rain on sultry summer days

That enjoys shoveling snow at 2am just to stop and listen to the peaceful calm

That loves putting my emotions and passion into words as poets often do

I am a broken poet but I think that most poets are

That's why they become 'poets'

To gather their brokeness and put themselves together with words

I try everyday to put myself back together

But I know now, that I am broken for life

A deeply passionate, broken poet for life

Poets are simple people, loving simple things

We are roses that bloom only to die

We are life and we are death

We are keepers of the keys to many a fantasy

Remember us poets

Remember us as you gather the broken glass

That's all that we ask
