more than poetry

sometimes I'm almost convinced
that's it's more than mere poetry,
maybe reality evinced
the apricity of history.

could be naïve or accurate predictions
or maybe the soul's yearning.
lessons from bad decisions,
for every day we're learning.

a walk, or song, or thought
a flame in the dark.
it could've been, could've not
hear it in the song of a lark.

and as curtains unfold
and words fly out
that heart so cold
will be rid of doubt.
