by JB Nuique
Being a poet is what you are.
You never talk about your scar.
But you write it with all your might.
So your tumults will be alright.
You owe the world all your musings
And you thank God for the blessings,
When you discern that with your hands,
You can save your heart and great lands.
That is a beauty you possess;
Taming beasts by writing your fears.
Being a poet is what you are.
Maybe not known but it's your scar.
