If You Really Knew Me

By Sonnet Diva

If you really knew me, you would see the gentle soul inside

I bleed out  all the pain in my words as my muse can not hide

While expressing myself in many forms I have found inner pride

If you really knew me, you’d chuckle at the Muse in overdrive

The constant writing I think keeps imagination alive

Now in retirement  I find that I write to survive

If you really knew me, you’d know that I can be deeply hurt

Sometimes the Muse drives out the pain in a writing  alert

I’m a happy person that is mostly an extrovert

If you really knew me, you’d know that being around children makes me whole

I’m amazed at their insights, perceptions, and energy they find hard to control

Guess you could say I’m a natural born teacher deep within my soul

If you really knew me you’d know that I don’t look for fame

My excessive writing for me is like a game

The name Sonnet Diva is one that I claim

If you really knew me, you’d know that I love to read

Poetry and books my mind it does so feed

While collabing with others I do it with speed

If you really knew me, you’d know I excel at many things

Gardening, cooking decorating, has given me wings

And yes all around the house she dances and sings

If you really knew me. my personality’s complex

I love watching the ocean and how it reflects

Mostly though you realize I’m always ready to Flex
