PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Now my pencil moves in unexpected ways

It writes the words that I yearn to say

But my tongue is thick and it wont move

So I just let that pencil speak for me

My heart palpitates with each gentle touch

I'm afraid that you'll notice it pounding

That you'll see it jump from my chest

Every embrace, every kiss,

every time I stare into those beautiful brown eyes

When I hear your voice whisper in my ear,

I spring to life

My pencil still runs across the page

My mind not knowing exactly whats coming next

What surprise will leap onto this sheet

My heart understands every word

Yet you'll never comprehend

this jumble of the alphabet
