A story of a girl not known
Quiet words
Have the loudest voices
Make the least choices
And sit in stride
Trying to hide
But they are heard in the silence of lips
That sink ships
Tethered torn and ragged
Life is jagged against the rocks of time
But I will be fine
I hear it all the time
About that one, that was not known
Even when they were grown
Just want to be left alone
With the words that will speak
That I am not weak
I just feel internally
What you do not feel emotionally
Or mentally, nor psychologically
I feel the earth moving as it spins
And the days as they start over and over again
I feel the seasons coming
And when the earth is rumbling
The storms will come as a blessing
And most will call it a catastrophe
I guess that's the best way to describe me
For I write without thought or emotion
I flow like the ocean
And sometimes I will leave a bitter taste in your mouth
Easily consumed for my beauty
But not good for the palate.
