What is poetry? I want to write good song lyrics... Is poetry

As long as it rhymes and makes sense, it's a good first step and averything else requires just practice.

Death please come swift like a gentle breeze;I am ready to die so hurry please.

Tragic, but magic.

Roses are not red
Violets are not often blue
How do I poem?

Depends on the genre you're making. To make songs you just need to rhyme desu, most mainstream genres at least don't use heavy poetic shit, just simple lines normal people can comprehend.

Of someone else's heart inside a body that's freezing
So when I got on out of there I spoke my name
To the soul who's little boat has been caught out in the rain
