It's Poetry, Darling

It's Poetry, Darling

It's poetry, darling.
So just let it enter your soul.
Let it into your mind,
And your heart,
And reach down to your bones.
Let it pull something out of you
You didn't know was even there.
Listen
And let it tell you something new.
Let it fill your brain with ideas
So strange and divergent
You find you want to hide
And never come outside.
It's poetry, darling.
So just let it into your soul
And allow yourself to feel.
