Words If I could arrange them to say what I want each day and get them onto a page. It would calm my soul and clear my brain and extinguish this inner rage. Speeding around inside my head a million thoughts at once Writing them down is all that I have to keep them quiet and calm So if you read what I write, sleepless at night, know only what matters to me If they made you smile or put a tear in your eye, then the words have found a home For when you write it's your soul that you give for another to pick up Poem or book it's a piece of you that you give away to the world It's so often the only way a lonely soul can be heard
