A Poem

patdolan83 • 367 followers

It's placing ones all
With pen onto paper
Airing your thoughts
For lovers and haters

It can be escapism
When pain plays a role
Writing it out
Cleansing the soul

Exorcizing the demons
That reside in your mind
It's cathartic in essence
Release what's inside

It's not always heartache
Turmoil and angst
It's a medium for joy
Love and romance

It's a way of conveying
What's easier with words
If it wasn't for writing
Might never be heard

The pen is the puppet
The heart pulls the strings
The brain a spectator
The result... A poem

No Offence

My poems are thoughts. That come from my mind. Some of them dirty. Some can be kind. I can write fiction. Or even the truth. My sexual poems. Go through the roof. Sometimes you won't like.

I'm Here To Write

I'm here to write. Something from the heart. The words must be perfect. Writing is an art. I'm here to write. And learn from others. To get inspiration from you all. Kids, dads, or mothers.

Poetic License!

So apparently I need to learn to rhyme, So what if I can't it's not a crime, Maybe I need to go back to school, Then over lyrical perfection I can drool, Or maybe I just write what I feel, That way...

I Write To Express

I write for the sheer joy of expressing myself. A palette of words to paint a thought. A feast for your palate adventures have brought. To have you cry with me. Or share in my laughter.

Pencil

Hand me my pencil, let me write. Forget the pad and phone. Scribble down some words tonight. And make them all your own. Write a poem to a lover. A story or an ode. As long as someone or another.

Writing Off The Top Of My Head

Flow. Like the sea and the sand and a pen in my hand, Flow. Like the stars and the moon lighting up the gloom, Flow. I hope these words never stop else I think I will pop, Flow.

The Art Of Poetry.

So much to say, So little time, Express it all, With simple rhyme. Or make it new, By Flaunting Style, Top it off, With a little smile.
