Poems
Nov 2013
Trying
Trying* to write with a broken pencil.
Trying
to fly with clipped wings.
Trying
.
I'm
trying
to talk to you, but there is
a door between us.
I'm
trying
to open it, but it's locked from the inside.
Like
trying
to come up with the next line of a poem,
you're on the tip of my tongue.
Roll off my tongue and dance in my ears,
at least say you'll
try
.
Do or do not; there is no try.
