I just realised it's been a year A year since I started Spilling my thoughts Onto paper Writing for nothings sake Not an assignment A task Or a grocery list These words That people call poetry It became an art Like a love Born from afar Yet close to my heart A passion Overcome That flows letters In writing In a form Some think better And are hesitant To speak out loud A silent pleasure To your eyes Its tone is uttered Each reader To their own An interpretation To be known For you alone
