"Within The Words"



It begins all upon a thought
A whirlwind of action
Like a thunderstorm breaking
Or a hurricane breaching the shore line
The dark clouds part
The sun shines bright
Darkness and light mix together
All at its peak
The surge...
You wrestle it down and the words begin to flow
Quick and swift
Smooth and hard
Beaten, raw, and bleeding
Softly, elegantly they assemble themselves in order
Like building a rose petal
Or constructing a great tapestry of your being
The soul broken open
Existing purely within the moment
Words travel from head to hand at lightening speed
Words harsh
Of scorn...
Or a sweet love
And tenderness...
Some how these movements make sense of it all
From beginning, middle, to end
You know that these words are your own
And you are better off for writing them
For experience learned
To live the truth within
Seeking the wisdom they embrace
And to own every ounce of them.
