No matter how tired or distraught,
the poet find time to write his thoughts.
His pen is his blood.
His paper his water.
In them, he swims and he struggles,
sometimes losing and drowning.
The poet, he sees in a flower,
what others might see in a rose.
The poet, he sees in his love,
what others might just take for granted.
The poet, he sees life,
through magnifying glasses.
The poet he has a hard life.
It's not easy being a poet.
Absorbing too much at times,
writing being his insatiable need.

Perceptive peek into the essence of a poet.  It isn't easy, is it?

I miss you so much I cant stand it
Seems like my heart is breaking in two
My head says no, but my soul demands it
Everything I do reminds me of you

Walker again, you've pulled at what I love about BC; his love for writting for all to see. He does not tire, for it is I who needs thee. LP

He is my pen, I am but the paper he
writes on.
