A teacher once told me
Poetry is emotion distilled
It’s a feeling
Run through the filter of a pencil
The impossibly abstract
Memories of my home rooted deep in a poem
The poem that changed my life
Taught me the meaning of strife
Revealed the secrets of unrequited love
There are times when it seems like
My mouth is filled with buzzards
And I can't make sense of the words
That come and go like the wind;
Sometimes there is too much wind in my chest
