i found peace at the tip of the quill
i found home at the edge of the hill
no painting could describe how i feel
thousand words, but are hard to spill
this is the void only poetry can fill

poetry taught me how to speak
diligently, i'm not that hard to teach
eloquence, that's what i wanna reek
nobody, that's who i wanna please
kindness, that's what i wanna bleed
compassion, that's how i wanna lead.
