THE BEAUTY AND POWER OF WORDS

She lives and breathes poetry

Her words leap off the page

Ink runs through her veins

As her words take the stage

Her pen became her voice

With feeling and emotion

Tears stained with ink

Left a permanent impression

The splinters of her brokenness

Became a mosaic, a piece of art

A million words of ink on canvas

Released from her heart

Poetry gave expression

Like graffiti on a wall

Words told the story

When she had no voice at all

She lives and breathes poetry

It's what she lives for

To find beauty among the ashes

As she rises up once more
