why poetry

Why poetry? why not a book? why not a story? Just take a look, poetry isnt just words, its ink thats spread through the veins of the author, the hurt, the burden, the smiles, the tears, our fears, hours of thoughts, buried away through the skin and in a maze, so when we write, we let it out, the emotion the struggle, its not just a poem, its a movie of emotion, its the moon when theres not a star in the sky, its the dark when the suns too bright, its the light at the end of our tunnel, its a thought that came from the struggle, so snuggle up and grab your pen, cause these nights never seam to end
