POET

A hardened heart,
is so dispairing and cold,
he seems so hideous from afar,
but on the inside is caring and warm.

So vicous and cold,
so arrogant and bold,
and so quiet tonight,
as he sits and he writes
by the rain
And his heart feels nothing but pain...

The worlds greatest work of art,
is written by a poet with a broken heart...

Vamp, welcome and I enjoyed the poem. It is so very true. That's why poets are so unique at times.


( you may want to correct pan to pain and, possibly, you meant to say work of art)

Again, welcome.
