Before
I had nothing to say,
Just another lonely soul
Walking around this place,
Until ———
You found me one day….
You urged me to release my passion
But shoved my hand in your face
Walked away from your foolish rhymes
Rules will not bound me
Restrictions will not limit me
Refused your critiques
But you still chose to run after me
Grabbed my hand to plead with me
…….I fought back
And then I decided
……… to SCREAM
Released my frustration with such emotion
But you only stared and smiled at me
At that moment I realize
That words can flow from me
With such boldness with no Apology
Thank you Poetry
——For my Voice

Wanted to share a poem I wrote about four years ago that sparked my love for poetry. Writing is one of the things I will never stop doing as long as I have breathe in my body…I encourage you to be and stay passionate about your passions in life.
