A True Poet

Quote: A true poet's work is never done, so write on-write on. By Poet
 
One day seems to follow yet another hopeless day,
          
despair is everywhere and everlasting.
            
Does time really march on,
                                            
no for it is infinite in my days and nights.
        
I sit here with yet another cold cup of coffee,
                  
one day I will drink until it is a bottomless hot cup
            
I dream of my poems being eternal,
                
yet some days I fail to write a word.
                                
Today maybe I am broken,
                              
did I fail to see my limitless potential.
              
I will search my unbroken keyboard,
                
looking for new words to write.
                                    
For sure tomorrow will come,
                                          
will I realize the boundless ability I must have to be a writer.
            
I must keep reminding myself,
                                        
of the endless words I must write each day.
      
For a true poet's work is never done,
                              
so write on-write on.
