When I Was Honored For Poetry Poem by Kezia Kezia

When I was honored for my poetry
I was perplexed
I was totally blank what to say in reply
Actually honor was not mine
They did not honor my words
They did not honor my phrases
They counted the gravity of Pain in words
They measured the girth of sarcasm in verses
They took note of substantial depth of phrases
They were seen delighted with grabbed pain
My riddle was still unsolved
I felt that I was not honored
Indeed pain, sarcasm and few insignificant words got honor
I never felt to be honored
it was their interest to show empathy towards words
my valuable efforts to catch the words in
claw was not even considered
I really felt confused when I was honored for poetry
