Summary: One of my 'complete-circle' poems. Interested to hear your thoughts




I am a poet,
my heart feels heavy.
My heart feels heavy
because I’m not free.
Because I’m not free
I’m deprived of my food.
I’m deprived of my food,
the power to write.
The power to write,
I am a poet.
I am a poet,
my heart feels heavy.
