How to Write a Poem

By Deserie Balbaneda

As you stare at the blank page before you
And don’t know what to write
Just think of all that happened
And how you live your life
Think of your sadness that you hide
Think of your love that is spread so wide
Bring out your imagination and let it soar upon the page
So that now you are no longer locked inside that cage,
The cage that holds you in so you can’t show any emotion
To how you write and live with such devotion
Finally you see the key as you unlock yourself to be free
You let out everything in your head as it swarms around you
In beautiful colors that are no longer dead
Then you stop and look down at what you thought was blank
To see a page full of words woven with such swank
