I try

by Ely24la

I try to speak But no words come out. I try to speak But I'm left in doubt. I try to speak But then I think, "what's in it for me." I try to speak And then I try to find out who I long to be.

I like basketball, playing it and watching it. I love music. I play 3 instruments.

<p>This one is a bit different from your other one....and I notice you went from being compared to William Shakespeare to Lewis Carroll. Oddly enough all my poems, though different, all compare to one guy Wells I think. Anyway, nice poem. I am new by the way, probably figured that out by now LOL!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>MC</p>
