Everyone has a story.
The question is will we live ours like a true poet?
A writer?
A scribe?
A narrator.?
Everyone is a poet in themselves
Poetry cannot be confined to paper
Nor words
It cannot be confined to the sea
Nor the birds
Poetry can’t be commanded
Nor can it have a set destination
No..
Poetry is destiny
And destiny is a story
And a story worth telling
Poetry is deeper than the seas
Farther than the stars
Higher than the skies
It holds..
It promises..
It is true
Poetry is us..
Poetry
Is you
Is in the eyes of the young
Is in the hearts of the strong
Is in the minds of the great
Is in the souls of the gates
Poetry began with the greatest poet of all
The one who took the fall
The one who gave it all
To answer the call
Of every sinner
And in the end
Became the over comer
Yea
Poetry began with the Creator
And the Creator began with poetry
For was it not poetry when He said
‘Let there be light!’
For was it not poetry when He said,
‘Let there be night!’
Yea
When we've lost our purpose
As us mere beings sometimes do
We look to the core
We look to He who is true
We look
Through the eyes of the Poet
