You've not heard any beautiful pure true poetry if you haven't heard of Amena Brown. All of her work is beautiful but one specific poem that I admire the most is called "You" and it has been made into videos. Besides just loving the way she expresses herself through words, there is meaning to her work. It's not just something to rhyme and make you feel all "tingly inside." Not at all. Her work shows the efforts she went through to get such a prophetic poem to flow from the tip of her tongue and unto the atmosphere.
In both videos, at the bottom, display the same poem but presented in two different types of presentations which both give off a powerful vibe. The first one is her reciting it live the second one is a video made with the words to flow the same way she gives them off with her mouth just to give it an understanding of the feel and mood of this poem. It is a deep thinker because it causes you, or at least it did for me, to analyze your heart and see what is that one thing you need to fix to align yourself into the right purpose in this world we live in where we tend to just want to hide from our Creator.
I admire this type of work, not only because I am also a writer and write poems, but because it was pure and honestly wholesome. Take a look below...
