poetry is to me

as leaves are to a tree

as air is to breathe

as adam is to eve

but what if it was adam and steve

what if air wasnt for us to breathe

what if trees didnt make leaves

poetry makes me feel free

because when i let my mind roam

it finds its home

not in my head

but on its own

i feel happy when i write

i feel invincible

instead of invisible

poetry saved me from taking my life

so in return i owe my life

to poetry for being my hero

and made me go zero

to one hundred

 i love poetry

and poetry loves me
