A combination of
meaningful words.
A long story,
told short.
A beautiful collection
of emotions and feelings.
A powerful meaning,
in every line.
A form of venting
and finding ones self.
A snap back to reality
or fantasy if you choose.
Full of numerous memories,
and repressed thoughts.
An answer to life
and a reason of being.
Poetry,
It is wonderful.
