If you walk into the dreams
of a poet, you will see
a realm of vast whiteness
adorned with thick clouds
of ink – blue, black and red.
If you walk into the dreams
of a poet, you will see
how they long for those
clouds to pour down heavily
and soak their deserted minds.
If you walk into the dreams
of a poet, you will see
how the world of words
is more peaceful than
a world of worthless worths.
If you walk into the dreams
of a poet, you will see
a part of yourself that was lost
because they can see, in you
what you yourself can’t see.
Since I first started writing, I mostly have written poems. It wasn’t a conscious choice but a yearning that made me express in the purest way possible. Poetry for me is a medium that connects me to myself. Looking back, I don’t think my existence would have been as meaningful as it is today, had I not entered the world of poetry.
Feel free to explore through my poems and the 30-day poetry challenge that I decided to take on to challenge my presets, express in novel ways, and help myself grow as a poet. Hope you can relate to them and reflect on your life stories through mine.
