A bump in the road
has got me tied
in knots
with no words to express
how tired I am
A pen against paper
has got me empty
without thoughts
running through my head
to say how spent I am
A place in the world
they say a poet's worth
lies in their words
to show feelings to the world
regardless of how empty they are
A knock against the sand
has got me listening
to a silent question
in my head
What do you call a poet
who has no words left?
