WORDS!

Why do you fail me?

WORDS!

Why can't you say just
      what
                                  I
                                                                               ...want...

The letters spun into a web,
words dancing,
clouded emotions found and solved.

Finding human connection through your struggle,
sing of the love I have,
and I hold so dear.
That I fear to be clear of what I hold here,
for I want nothing more,
than my Dear.

Chant for the friends,
who hold me down,
and build me wings.
Keeping me moving forward,
if only for a little longer,
with them.

Call for the family,
that I never feel I have found my place in,
never knowing,
is
   this
          how
                  you
                         love?

Never quite understanding,
is
   this
          how
                  you
                         write?

Finding that,
this
      is
          how
                  you
                        feel. And that's okey.
Kinda all over the place, I need sleep.
