"Words"

A Poem

My Writing

"Words."

I am a writer.

A failed writer.

An aborted writer.

A partial story teller.

In name only. Perhaps?

And yet.

And yet.

The only thing I know to be true.

The only truth I know.

The only truth I see.

The only belief I have.

Truth. It is the power of story.

Love is stories,

Life is stories. Stories are

Life. I only know words:

The power of words.

Yet.

Yet.

As I grow older.

As I grow deeper.

Words. They.

Words fail.

Words, they fail me again,

and again and again.

And this scares me, greatly. But.

Fear is good. I think.

It brings words. And words

continue to fail.
