The most authentic thing about us is our capacity to create, to overcome, to endure, to transform, to love and to be greater than our suffering.
Ben Okri Nigerian Poet
AS I SHARE MY WORDS
These words I use to express myself
I organize them in rhyme to be said
I cannot sit back and suppress myself
Too much to say dances in my head
The words bring to life my fantasy
The real world in my own kaleidoscope
They paint what I feel, what I see
The details of my deep down desires, my hope
I can create the moon and stars for you
With the words that come to mind
I'll provide temporarily relief for those things you do
Of the most monotonous kind
Use my rhymes to write a song
Sing it with feeling to that special one
Who makes you know life can't go wrong
Words can be the oceans, the mountains, the sun
And though sometimes I rhyme my suffering heart
And project my sadness for all to see
It's because it is difficult to disregard
I have left it all in black and white for me
As I share my words from deep inside me
I pour my soul onto the blank pages
It will take a while before I find me
Within the creativity that rages
