Lovely Little Poems

Lovely little poems
Buzzing in my head.
They whisper and they giggle
As they hear their bodies read.


I write them when I like
And even when I don't.
I've asked them, please, to free me,
But they tell me that they won't.


Lovely little poems
Dancing 'cross my mind.
They've grown to be a part of me
The piece I couldn't find.


The piece I've carefully hidden
That I scarcely dare bring out;
For words are the fiercest weapons
When they're flung and thrown about.


Lovely little poems
That I must learn to bend.
It's my duty to instruct them
To either bite or to befriend.
