Poet's Dilemma
Oh, why am I writing?
And what am I writing about?
I have collected my thoughts.
Yes, I have written
What I thought is a poem, but
I feel like it isn’t a poem.
And I don’t know why.
I’ve the words...
The poetic form...
The rhyme and the style...
Indeed, I have unveiled…
The mind…
The heart…
Yet still, I don’t know why.
No matter what I write
Or how beautiful my poem is
If you, my dear, are not reading it
Then, it isn’t a poem.
And, without you to read
…I will never be a poet!
