The poets I read
are depressed
this is why I read them
they understand me
and I understand them
they take time to talk about it
they speak for me
We are all poets
as we put our pen to paper
yes, we become poets then
and the next step is put
our poems into a book
for others to read who are
going through the same sorrows
The words from poets
make us feel understood
and no longer alone
Praise to the poets who are brave
enough to share their feelings
Dear poets
you helped me
make it through tonight
Please keep writing and sharing
