Dig Deeper
Sometimes I write a poem
and no matter
how many tweaks I make.
replace a word, add a line,
the end result
doesn’t capture the feelings
I’m trying to convey.
Suppressed emotions
are buried so deep
that the words
merely just scrape the surface.
The more intense the emotion
the more I have to
keep digging, digging
much deeper.
