I immerse myself in poetry

And literature 

It’s so beautiful and so disturbing

It makes you feel giggly

And you smile while trying to keep still

But it also makes you flinch 

And lose your appetite

You get transported into another realm

And you feel like a princess

Frolicking through a courtyard

You feel the adrenaline and suspense of the next scene

And then laugh at how unexpected it was

You listen to music while writing

And feel proud of it once you step back

You share it with someone but they don’t quite understand

But you just smile and say,

“You don’t have to understand.”

It’s your own little secret

That only you truly see

This is what I love
