Sarah K, One of my favourite poets

One of my favourite poets is Sarah Kay.. Do you know who she is? She said that she writes poems to help her get through  trials in life, and so do I,  when I can't express myself, when something is bothering me I write poetry and I have never left a poem incomplete, I just can't do it even if it means I have to stay up til dawn.  let my give you an experience:
I'm not the most consoling person and this one time my friend was going through a rough path. Her life seemed to be falling apart and she came to me to vent and I just stood there not knowing what to do. I tried prayer., I tried crying with her, I tried telling her that everything will be okay but everything made her more sad which killed me. When she left I felt bad because I saw it in her eyes, I knew that she wanted more... So I wrote her a poem. The next day I read it for her and I got that look that I was looking for, I got that , "Carisa your'e a true friend kinda look" . The look that makes me value what I do. Note that she is the only friend I read for, but that will change not with The Word Korner.

here is the poem I wrote for my friend 

SPEECH OF THE HEART

why is there always bad news?

something is always wrong

and i always feel so down

it's like i'm drowning

in an ocean of pain

with nothing but disappointment left to gain

when did i get here and why

do i always have to be forcing not to cry

still all the tears i keep stay inside

Building a cocoon under my heart where they hide

to everyone I’m miss bubbly and happy

but nobody knows the pain that hides inside me

and would they even care

i look around and i see nobody here

but scalpers and con artist of devotion

to friendship they have no emotion

at the end of it all

i have to catch myself if i ever fall

but this is too much for one person handle

and I’m starting to crumble

falling off the edge with all this bad news

Does anyone want to borrow my shoes?

Lend me theirs for just one day

so from this pain i can get away

but i guess i'll have to deal with it

Create my own way out of this shit

 until then,i must stand tall

must never let them see me fall

it's not gonna be easy and might take a while

but my outer impression
will always rock that smile!!!
