Thank You Poem

I really need to clear my head, so I begin writing these words...
They must be a part of what's cluttering my mind because with every syllable my thoughts become clearer...

Thank you poem, not just for inspiration, but for release...
Thank you poem for making these feelings cease...if but only for a moment and I know that you will dictate to me when that moment has passed or how long it should last...
Thank you poem for making me cry...its hard to hold it all inside..its even harder to express through emotion, when people aren't watching.
Thank you poem for giving me an audience to drain away the hard times and to share with me in the good.
Thank you poem for being understood and for giving me structure when I feel like my life is falling apart...
Thank you for your start and our ending...hopefully by then ill not underestimate these journeys I've taken with you.

maybe I should listen to my own voice instead of just projecting it for others

Thank you poem for opening me to my mothers heart and damning time...even helping a friend become poet too.
It is because of you that I have a purpose to surface and forget about the corals, you have let me share my views on god, even express
my morals...
Thank you poem for your direction and for steering me without exception
and most of all...
I thank you poem for your reflection.

I feel exactly the same about the muse Your Nakedness!lol Excellent expression of what poetry can do for us all, if we want it too. See? Sometimes trauma and grief can bring us closer to heaven! Smiling at you, wishing you a happy saturday, Tai
