This is where I am free,
Never confined into what I am supposed to be
for anyone but myself
It does not matter how I look,
Does not matter what you see,
but how you feel, what ripples through your soul
- warms your heart, soothes your pain,
Until you can feel strong again,
It's not black and it's not white,
Not too heavy or too thin
No, it's only what breathes within - you
There's no difference here
Where a pen kisses the paper
Because this is where you are fee,
Never confined into what you are supposed to be
for anyone but yourself.
Author notes
Quote: "We are all the same, artists with a pen in hand."
Poetry has always and will remain to me a way for people to express and let go. It doesn't matter how old you are, gender, race, none of it matters when you write.
Great contest. Good luck in the judging!
Happy Holidays as well.

True Words
This is an awesome piece of poetry that speaks truth.
With pen in hand we go to a whole other zone, sometimes not knowing where we'll end up until we reach the finishing line. I love this. -
This was beautiful hun, such honest and true emotions here. I love that I can feel your words so strong through this piece. One error though--(you forgot the "is" in the 3rd line down"- hope you dont mind me pointing that out.--great write, very passionate

Very lovely, your inner beauty very much shines here, through it all, you have continued to build yourself back up once you are broken, your words tell a story just as others tell their stories through writing. Katrina, you are a true beauty in so many ways.

I love this. It's so true. Very deep, it is definitely a way to look at this.
Thought provoking to say the least. Good luck in the contest.

This is a very good poem! Very much true. Poetry is one of the few places people can become whoever they need to be for a time, and are not confined by reality xD A wonderful way to vent, express, live. Thank you for sharing, I very much enjoyed it. The flow was really nice
