The heart of a poet Is a difficult one to understand Complex in nature And a challenge to read With convictions and thoughts That run deeper than you think Don't mistake my empathy for weakness Or my smile for innocence To speculate is not to know My eyes are windows To the beautiful madness That is my soul I see things for more than just what they are But for what they could be Finding the meaning in everything You may think I'm too sentimental Or in tune with my emotions But that doesn't bother me Why stay on the surface When their are such depths as the Ocean So stand my fellow poets And raise up your pens And lets show this world what were made of One word at a time This art to never end
