Poetry not prose


Poetry not prose

The poetry I feel inside
I have decided not to hide
Before in life I sort of lied
And always spoke in prose

The poetry I feel within
Is really where I can begin
To start to play and maybe win
It’s not that way with prose

The poetry I’m letting out
May just be brash or full of doubt
But either way I want to shout
It’s poetry not prose

My poetry won’t hurt a soul
Happy people are my goal
When they are happy I am whole
And I won’t need my prose

If you like it tell me so
Or say you’d like for me to go
Either way please let me know
In poetry not prose!
