O Poetry, I Waited for you

Kamrun writes a poem about poetry and what it means to her. An exclusive for Different Truths.

O poetry
I waited for you
for a long, long time…
I created a garden 
using nice flowering words.
I kept my word
I was committing to you.
 
Poetry 
do you know?
you are my life.
My unknown destiny
My invisible philosophy 
My thoughts or ideology.
 
Poetry 
I can’t live. 
a single day without you
Your single breath or a sigh
everything provokes me
to write.
 
Poetry 
when I get the smell of yours
I can feel the love of yours
You are mine my utmost love
My unseen destiny
My unknown love.
