~My Pen~

My Pen leaks onto the paper
Bringing out all thoughts that waver
Inking the feelings of my heart
Tearing each bitter word apart

Writing down a precious life
Releasing thoughts from me in spite
As differences put out my shame
My pen it leaks pain in my name

As each word sinks, my heart devours
And all can see how I have coward
For my pen, it brings what lips can’t heave
Through truth and lies, my pen may bleed

But never will this journey rest
My pen puts all hearts to the test
In conclusion it is my life, my savior
As my pen pours my soul onto paper…

Kelsey, It's always nice to see new poets on the site. Welcome! You have a great poem here. I have a suggestion here if you don't mind. The first four lines were awesome. Lines 5-10 have a rhyming pattern, but seem forced. This is just my perspective on your poem. As always, just some friendly feedback ~ ______________________________________________________ Income-tax forms should be more realistic by allowing the taxpayer to list "Uncle Sam" as a dependent Anonymous
