The Unsung Hero Named The Poet

By Johnny
He saw the world through rhyme
To him it was all just lyrics
A long drink of his favorite wine
As he walked among the derelicts

Empathetic to the world's mood
Gives him stony inspiration
As he sleeps under the moon
Writing hand filled with anticipation

A lonely unheard poet
Writes an unread book
No home where he can store it
It's tucked inside his ratty coat
So many unwritten verses
And unchanneled emotion
But for now the world curses
The unheard voice of the poet
Can we all forgive the choices
Of the unsung hero named The Poet

Will they use his own words
As they gather in his passing
Asking why he never gave the world
Such words of beauty and of blessing

So alone he'll remain
In a ground so cold
And among the remains
Wrapped up in a ratty coat
Lies another unheard poet

A lonely unheard poet
Writes an unread book
No home where he can store it
It's tucked inside his ratty coat
So many unwritten verses
And unchanneled emotion
But for now the world curses
The unheard voice of the poet
Can we all forgive the choices
Of the unsung hero named The Poet
The unsung hero named The Poet
