My Poet Self
reaching deep within
not knowing what will come
I open myself up
to every tender thought
arising
writing words from my heart
feelings pouring out
onto the page
this is a safe place
I know it
I feel it is so
there has always been
a poet self
buried deep within
now I reach inward
to find myself there
writing and sharing
the pages of my life
looking forward to what will come
and what can be overcome
with written words
flowing
freely
open wide
