To Be A Poet

Poetry is simplistic
It is relaxation in its ultimate place
It is temptation in the same space
Thus is poetic

It has restriction however
Such as the inability to judge or be prejudice
It is unable to show the outside, only what is truly in you
Is ti bad, never

The words on paper
Give wisdom beyond years
Weather black, white, him, or her
It helps us get past our fear

It is emotion solid
It is thoughts flowing
It is maturity in our hearts
It is the burning pain of truth, just knowing

It is our last peace
It is our last pain
It is our final thought
Before the love of life makes us insane

Looking at many... outside
Never give a double take
Do you see turmoil inside?
I guess not, you don't know how to quit bein' fake

I mean not to be rude
I hate pain and hurt
But personality isn't a mood
Just look to my eyes; quiet but intensly alert

Even those who sit around me
The pretty girl straight ahead
I wonder if she can see
My life or the path i've led

But i guess the biggest difference is
Is that you don't know it
The knotted feelings and racing thoughts
What it means, to be a poet

If you have anything to say then don't be shy. I'm open to any kind of comment. Thx Chris
