Words
Flowing
Words
Growing
In my mind

Words
Slipping
Words
Dripping
Through my hands

Words
Drifting
Words
Lifting
Up and away

Words
Tumbling
Words
Fumbling
And they're gone

My Notebook

My notebook
Full of words
Letters
Commas and periods

My notebook
Full of smudges
Eraser bits
Crinkles and creases

My Notebook
Full of messages
Hidden Meanings
Energy and life

My notebook
Is the place,
The book
In which
I write

We all have that one old, torn notebook that holds all of our secrets and poems.

GracefulWords Nov 2014

You

You clung,
I swung
Away

We fought
I caught
A glimpse

Of who
You
Are

They were right;
I was wrong, I will fight
Against you

For me,
I just want to be free
Not

Trapped,
Lapped,
Alone

Words

'Sticks and stones
May break my bones
But words will never hurt me'

The biggest lie
Ever told by
Anyone

Words cut deep
Never forget; keep
Forever

Bruises and cuts
Holes and ruts
Fade

Words don't
They won't
Go away

Or disappear
With the fear
Until

You
Do
Too

River

A river
So swift, so pretty
Gliding by
Not heeding
Uncaring
Pulls you in
And holds you captive

GracefulWords Nov 2014

(Blind)

I hide it all
(The scars, the pain)
So they don't see
(They're blind)
And I don't fall
(Just loss, no gain)
Just me
(Who they'll never find)

— The End —
