P assion runs deep like the vast pacific
O ceans of ink I will sink so someone else can get lifted
E verytime I write I hope someone gets a breath of life
T rials and tribulations find wisdom while i'm low, so I can appreciate the heights
O btacles come oh the heat, like hell it will singe
F ire from my tongue, phrases become that food that I binge
P ressured for so long finally I breach my contained dam
A boy that wrote some flurries, now I have written an avanlanche oh man
I reached inside and I pulled feelings from the depths
N umb I am from past hurt, now my pen has wept
I write for ones who can't channel pain through words
S alvation sometimes comes from the blood of these nouns and verbs
P lease lord let concepts flood my lungs, your proverbs I recieve
R ose from my bottom because In myself I started to believe
O pulant is my vision abundant is my dreams
L avish is my manuscripts, the wealth is yet to be seen
I know greatness will manifest, just because I spoke it
F eelings will possess my pen, like an entity wrote it
I feel like my paragraphs can cover lands of drought like a tidal wave
C onsumed by poetic gasoline, It's time I set paper forests ablaze.
