Better Now
Poetry
I was never the best at poetry
when I was younger I hated it
Yet, I kept trying, trying to make metaphors of my life
but the page was left empty as I sat with zero inspiration
the only way poetry made me feel better
was watching my best friend write his
Everytine his life fell apart, he would put his feelings together back on the page
Filling his journal full of heartbreak, loss, and anger left him feeling better
And that is when I learned it does not matter what the words say
but that the words allow the emotions to leave the bay of his heart
and allow healing.
