26 Poems

26 letters make words.

And if you find the right words,

You can form the right sentences.

And if you can manage to form the right sentences,

to make the best phrases,

you have made paragraphs.

And if you have enough paragraphs,

you turn them into 26 poems.

 

26 poems

telling 26 different stories

about the same buried feelings

That sometimes come out to play

The feelings within

That the lies have set in

With their power of desire and pain.

There is nothing left to gain

because gaining means experience

and I don't want to experience

events that will lead to the emotions

that I need to translate into

a flow of words

with a potently beautiful rhythm.

But,

I feel nothing

No combination of 26 letters

no words,

no phrases,

nothing can achieve the feeling

of this darkness.
