I broke the word dam!

The words

The words in my head

Forever stuck in my head

I've tried

Oh! How I've tried

Again and again

To have those words spill from my pen

To light the world and inspire a smile

To bring out the dark, torturous and vile

To share all the pieces of myself

With the words that rise and fall

They beckon

They call

They taunt me

And haunt me

Begging to be layed on a page

And I have no choice

No choice but to obey.
