"What is the reason of poetry"

@Uootem

what is the reason of poetry...
              a complement of the unexpected and
                              a companion of the unexplained?

i eagerly await confirmation of my hoping words,
              tempered by the reality of contemplation in verse....
many times i have written of the vision of you...
              an illusion of love... that now fades in misty eyes
i have become responsive to every thought.
              the poet in me has greedily taken what time has offered.
                            as the dreaming of you has consumed me...

for in writing, i can touch you in ways that I now only dream about.
                    i can hear your voice as it speaks to me of love shared
                    i can taste your kiss and remember the passion known,
                    i can feel your pleasure and your yearning can mirror mine...
                    i can feel your intensity as you motivate me...
                            filling me with unmitigated hunger.
              i long for the expression of heart felt emotions
                            that exist in sync my most secret dreams...

so what is the reason of poetry...
              an expectation of the unexpected and
                            an explanation of emotions unexplained...
                                                    another poem,
                                        another dream,
                            another hope...
