A Poet Writes.. Poem by monini angeles

a poet writes from within, not always from what have beens.
a poet sees in and out of box.
a poet loves truly and bruises deeply.
a poet's heart may be dying but you won't see them crying.
a poet just smiles at you but he's seeing right through you
a poet wears a mask in doing his task.
a poet can hide what's going on inside.
a pretender you may call it, but i think that's just it.
a poet does what actors do,
portraying a role that isn't you.
only, an actor acts.......
a poet writes.
