PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I don't know how else

To tell you...

I've written and dreamed,

Sung and screamed!

Still my heart is weighted

With a sailor's anchor.

Words never to be spoken.

Answers never to be had.

It's like feeling

Something is missing,

Yet it's something you

Never had.

Sometimes I'll wake with

A vague recollection

That I can't quite make out.

Whatever I do will be

Surely dishonest-

Either to those around me

- or to myself. (I've chosen the latter).

There is no right answer.

Only the emptiness.

Knowing deep down

That I have forsaken the heart

For the logic of the mind.

Some screams can't be spoken...
