Seemingly writing without purpose,
Expressing what is already felt;
What can a poet's words express
When there is nothing to express?
He writes down his aching heart;
The bruises, the bleeding, the scars.
She writes down her loneliness;
Her secret wish for love.
A mother writes of her lost child,
Silently pleading "come home, come home."
A father writes of past regrets;
Of the family he had abandoned.
If those feelings are so commonly felt,
Then why do poets write them out?
We unveil the silent sufferings,
And expose the cruel reality.
We open the eyes of those who are blind,
And put feeling where there was only apathy.
Such is the consequence of our writing,
And, in turn, our purpose.
