poetry to me


the pen is mightier than the sword so i stabbed one in my chest and let the words bleed out my tongue is clumsy and heavy when words matter most my voice trembles and shakes even at the thought of speaking my throat refuses to function although it screams for understanding so i write with my blood, i write with my life.
