My emotions are on display today
My emotions are on display today
Not trapped within the confines of my soul
But in the countless poems I’ve seen
Each a different stamp on my passport heart
Where the voices of unafraid poets whisper in my ears
And my father's hospital rooms bleed into symphonies of feelings
The Maestro still conducting long after the hall empties
Where a sense of belonging began and still lingers
Resonating deep within as I reach to the light
Reaching towards freedom and its’ glory
Glory which has been the base of so many writings
Immortalized within the determination to thrive
A feeling I have carried and kept close to remind myself
Through each new poem which has carved its place in my heart
That my emotions are on display today
