Talented Youth

Delicate words fall at my mercy,

Like paper crumbling in a writers hand,

Suffering thoughts now pawns of disposal,

A soft spoken language in a chaotic land,



Whip of the tongue unleashes pain aplenty,

Drawing on hatred, love and regret,

These words settle on pages of the soul,

No sooner written then time to forget,



A poetic spirit now wanders this realm,

No place to go, nowhere to belong,

I crush it, tear it, sever the talent young,

Vanishing like the wind, I am gone.
