I have words inside of me
Into each verse of poetry
Each poem has a message
Through every passage
I hope to inspire
Spreading like fire
I don't expect riches or fame
Not every poet is the same
I try to see life at a different view
I hope somehow I touched you
I'm not Dickens or Frost
I didn't write Paradise Lost
I don't have answers to universal questions
Perhaps with you, I made a connection
One day, I'll put my poems into a book
It may not be a bestseller or might be overlooked
I can't change the world, I tried
At least you heard my voice inside
Author notes
I find beauty in my voice in my poerty, a modest opinion of myself as a poet
