A poem can be
Whatever you want it to be;

A poem can be a short, sweet story
Or a long, melodious song.
A poem can be realistic;
But fantasy has its own flow.

A poem about the past-
Both good and bad; something you reflect upon.
A poem can be about the future
Of the world, your life or a creature.

A poem can be your emotions-
Devastation, ecstasy, anger, love.
A poem can be who you are-
A victim, a hero, a sister, a kid.

A poem can express the Universe!
