Poetry in my family genes

Folder: 
2017 poems

Poetry is my gene

It's not rude or mean


Poetry is what

Completes the story

Of my life


It keeps me going,

And I don't even

Have to take my

Anger out by just


Using some crazy 

Outrageous weapon

Or knife


Poetry is my gene

It gives me quiet

A bit of peace


Because now I'm

A follower of the

True maker himself


Poetry keeps me

Out of the dark


That's what had

Changed my whole

And complete heart
