the simplicity of words
by
words, embedded in my skin
the way my pen glides along yellow paper
the spaces between my curving letters
it's a breath taking experience in my mind
the emotions you are able to provoke with the simplicity of words-
a heartache
goosebumps on thin, pale arms
tears resting on a rosy cheek
a revelation
love
hatred
empathy
it goes on,
with every adjective created
words, etched on my heavy lids
the way my pen glides along yellow paper
the spaces between my curving letters
it's a breath taking experience in my mind
the emotions you are able to provoke with the simplicity of words-
a heartache
goosebumps on thin, pale arms
tears resting on a rosy cheek
a revelation
love
hatred
empathy
it goes on,
with every adjective created
words, etched on my heavy lids
