Poetry to me is raw, emotive force.
Poetry gives voice to my heart when I don't understand what my heart is saying.
Poetry clarifies in my mind that which I cannot grasp.
Poetry isn't for you - it's for me. If I write poetry to please my audience, it tames my humanity.
Poetry for me is true vulnerability - You cannot simply read my words, but you rather take away a part of me.
Poetry is where I don't feel the need to be perfect or accepted.
Poetry is where I escape my bravado and am left with myself and the world, broken or beautiful as I truly see it.
Poetry is healing to me, often.
This is what poetry is to me.
