I know of a great doctor
A surgeon that mends broken hearts and restores hopes
A doctor with a magic touch so powerful that even the strongest storms falls silent at his touch I know of a great doctor
His name is poetry
He’s the best doctor I’ve met in my entire life
I say he’s a great doctor because I’ve been his patient for a while now
I know it sounds weird to say that poetry is a doctor but what do I call something that drives out my pain and fears and injects a dose of hope and sometimes happiness?Poetry gives me a certain high that only few patients like me can relate
Poetry has a way of unearthing what’s buried deep in my arm, allows it to travel down my arm and falls silently on paper
Poetry is the only thing that literally takes me to the world of fantasyPoetry to me is therapy
When I sit to write the whole of me falls silent and work in symphony to pen down experiences mostly not mine
So therapeutic that after inking my book serenity washes over my soulIf my soul reeks of happiness then poetry is responsible
Yes, I know sometimes life gets thorny but poetry has a way of watering my soul so it blooms despite the thorns
Poetry heals
When I tell you poetry is a doctor,trust me
