The Art of Words

Contemporary poetry filled with witty concepts, a range of emotions, and the natural beauty of the world. No matter if you’re looking for inspiration, a good laugh, or a cute poem to read your children to sleep, The Art of Words is the choice for you. The pieces of poetry included often contain puns, play on words, and personification. Other pieces of this collection can relate to the average person in almost every scenario including: love, heartache, loneliness, happiness, betrayal, and judgment. Join this journey with me and take a closer look at the world through a witty yet understanding poet’s perspective.

Here is an original piece that will give insight to the style of writing covered in The Art of Words. A more serious toned poem on the beauty of finding true love, a love thought only capable of finding in your dreams.

Dreams and the Heart

Dreams and the Heart,
Go hand in hand.
One leads to the other,
And back again.
The heart feels,
What a dream captivates
True happiness,
Until one awakes.
The heart holds treasures,
That dreams try to explore.
Staying asleep,
Long as possible craving for more.
More time is what the heart,
Begs to the dream.
More time is all
That the heart really needs.

One day though,
The heart made a friend.
No, not Dreams,
But someone more like him.
Someone special,
Named Heart too.
Oh the joys and love,
That flowed through.
The two of them together,
Put dreams to shame.
With true love,
Being the one to blame.
Now things are different,
Very different than before.
The heart doesn’t need,
The dreams anymore.
Instead it begs,
To stay awake.
For as long as possible,
As to never separate.
Because now the only thing,
That gets in the way,
Is what the heart,
Needed so bad in the first place.

Two halves
Bonded by the seams,
Two hearts in love
Hand in hand, as if in a dream.
