I come out no stronger
when a poem is all over.
come down to earth on broken wing
words gone dry heart bleeding
with me not even making a beginning!
When a poem is done
it tells me
you've not yet begun
not done your part
and still stuck at the start!
I come out no stronger
when a poem is over.
the mind for sometimes hover
falls down with broken wing
words gone dry heart bleeding
with me not even making a beginning!
When a poem is done
it tells me
I'm left undone
mere ink on paper without a soul,
when one more dream of mine you stole.
