    unspoken

    yes indeed, there are words always waiting to be written.
    at the present moment, I am content with the emotion
    of being smitten.
    In the midst of this dance through a cause such as romance,
    I find mysef surrounded by confusion, an intrusion to the
    serenity of my thoughtless illusions.

    With wasted efforts, I attempt to live the cliche' of this day to day,
    ignore the hearsay, pretend everything will eventually, if not
    quickly turn out satisfactory.
    These fruitless thoughts, accompanied by self-doubts will result
    in misery to the end of my life expectancy.

    What a bunch of garbage to try and salvage such a fast paced
    mind of this heathen savage.
    I'm on the ledge, toying with the idea of plunging over the edge,
    hoping with all hopes, the final destructive fall just might end it all.

    Yes, there are always words waiting to be written, but at least
    my tongue is bitten, long enough so my words will not be spoken,
    saving my last breath for when my spirit can no longer be broken.

    Wow...I love this. The style flows really well and the transitions between thoughts are natural and the denouement impeccable. No regrets, right? Take the plunge, jump into the unknown and say the thing you thought you would never say. It's amazing to find you can still breathe after you speak the unspeakable...

    you should know that this is the first piece i wrote in the book you gave me because you wrote in the very first page: "because there are always words waiting to be written"...so yes, thank you very much.

    Poetry is what is lost in translation.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
