This Poet's Heart


The heart of a poet
Sees the world differently
All the connections
And broken pieces
It all feels so damned....much!
So, I'm not trying to invade your privacy
But I can see
Things you don't even realize you've revealed
And when I do
I've seen you, for real
And then, I just want to make it OK for you
Most of the time I know I can't
So, I write about it
Because this poet's heart
Can see things
That the world doesn't realize it's shown
And the words
They're a place to put it
So it doesn't rip me to pieces
When I can't make it right
Just wanted to tell you
How it works
