As the words flow through my thoughts
Some begin to get lost
When I’m writing it’s like
I become a whole other person
When I just let them flow out
They form stanzas
And as each one grows
They tell a story
Paint a picture
Can you see it
Can you see the words
Painted out like graffiti
A million words to choose from
But none of them seem to fit  
Searching
Trying to find the words to say
To make it all flow together
Like a water fall
Flowing from one word to the next
Connecting together in the end
In on big pool
Like paint on a canvas
It’s not complete
Until you add all the colors and their shades
And just like life
It won’t last forever
But it will at least last for tonight
Just like a photo
You can capture the moment
You can hold it tight
You can even retell it in your own way
With words you can do so much
You can form a sentence
Tell a story
Create emotion
Capture a moment
You can even share your heart
And as the words flow through my thoughts
Some begin to get lost
Soon I will find just the right ones
In just the right order
They will create something amazing
Something beautiful
