My Blood for the World
Location
I am living poetry.
Each beat of my heart is a word
and the verses of a thousand
unwritten poems flow through my veins.
I write out of fear,
a fear of leaving the world
in the same sorry state
in which we first met,
my pen acting as a channel
for my life's essence to pour out
onto paper.
Each poem born of me
lives and breathes as I do,
and with these poems I create an army,
each soldier desperately fighting for change.
Their ammunition words,
and prose
and philosophy,
and most of all-
Love.
