what once shook, dropped, broke you
that is poetry what once loved, held
and nurtured you that is poetry what
once tore, ripped, left you for dead that
is poetry what once betrayed trust
in you, laid in wait to slay you, smiled in
your face, stabbed you in the back that
is poetry what romanced, danced
and moved you that is poetry what
once abandon shun and ostracized
you that is poetry its all pain
pleasure and in between how
you felt and still will that is poetry
