What is a "lyric"?

A lyric is a form of poetry that expresses personal emotions and thoughts, often focusing on feelings related to love, nature, or introspection. Unlike narrative poetry, which tells a story, lyrics are typically shorter and more musical, emphasizing rhythm and sound. This form allows poets to convey deep emotional experiences in a compact way, often using vivid imagery and figurative language. Lyric poetry has been a prominent form throughout literary history. The lyrical quality of these poems invites readers to connect with the poet's inner world and explore universal themes of human experience.
