HEAR SAY

Folder: 
JOURNAL#17

what I see

         is not pretty

what I hear

          is not sound

what I say

         is not so very witty

what I search for

                can never be fully found

so these trivial tears

                     that I concede to cry

are only fueled by

                 a self recriminating doubt

so very uncannily are they

                         like I

as all these experiences

                       real or imagined

in my otherwise hopeless head

                            appear to be

just what I am about

                   inconsequential 'Hear Say!'.....
