Mission Statement of a Poet

Mission Statement of a Poet

It’s time for me to start,

I have creations to make,

I want to speed your heart,

Your brain I want to wake,

I want to damp your eye,

And be the chill along your spine,

I want you to ask why,

And I want for you to pine,

I want to be your smile,

And I want to be your frown,

I work hard all the while,

As to never let you down,

I want to make you hurt,

So that I can help you heal,

If there’s anything I’ve learnt,

It’s I want to make you feel.
