a sketchbook

a sketchbook


i drew and drew

i drew out my passion

but i tried to learn what i know

kinda hard

cos of techniques

i tried to shape faces and things

the same way an artist would

though i'm just a poetess

and i shape life of spoken words


i drew and drew

with a pencil

lining out a poem

in each beautiful picture

such a sweet character

maybe she's looking for love

and maybe love will find her


if i only knew how to draw

two souls together

like love birds in the sky

i'd be telling my own bittersweet story

only in a sketchbook


cos i drew and drew

i drew my love

around and everywhere

on pages like a map…

Very pretty and earnest love.
The repetition gives this poem
a lullaby feel.
