Is poetry deceptive?

Is poetry deceptive?

so far, I had lived

with pure ideas and put it in a firm way

but why the thought occurred and took me away

 

It was purely indicative

and never vindictive

to suggest humanitarian feelings

and put self as a simple human being

 

"No, No" I brushed aside such negative thought

and caught the attention

only on the positive side

and decided to go in with the same way

 

The poetry is holy medium

it may not speak with wisdom

but at least some true confession

and regard for human relation

 

I sing the hymns and pour out sentiments

with the same way, I try to present

the poetry in a simple way

so as to remain very close in an available play
