A Jewell in the Phoenix Flame

You there on that
Disserted desert island
Can you hear the whisper of the sound
Being spoken by your hands

You there hanging out that
Open window in your room
Are you waiting for the call
To finally stand up
To embrace all that within you
The imagination that is in bloom
To fill your hand’s with coal
Do some writing’s on the wall

Write about the simple things
And understand what’s Beautiful

Let’s not forget
Who you are
The pain and all the anger
Burning deep within you
And the apathetic love
An epidemic in this voiceless world

For you are the artist
The Poet and the Songstress
And all your passion for the words
Say
“If you take the pain
Out of love,
Then you have
Nothing left”

I feel weird when I read this, terrified even...because it's like you can read my mind, you've taken my thoughts and emotions out of me and written them in such a way that I've been taken out of myself...and am looking at me properly for the first time...I don't really know what to say except thank you, you are a true poet...♥

Not I

True poets are those that are remembered.
And some flames never burn out.
Thos arethe poets to read.
For all it's worth...

Yes, you

So modest
Yet true,
You know how much you're worth
For everything else
And more...♥

Not I Say You

Others have made comments in the past about my not taking praise or appretiation for what I write. I have done readings of other posted comments on this site, and the return thank you comment, but for me, I don't like taking credit for something my mind wrote. (other's, I've noticed, feel likewise in that matter).
Though, They are worthy of the praise....
For all it's worth...

I know

Even if people never commented on my poems, I'd still write, because if you get pleasure out of something then you shouldn't stop just because other people might not like it or don't say that they do like it...that said, beautiful poets always deserve praise ♥
