Go ForWords

The pen scratches along the page.
Where do the words come from?
Backtrack, inhale the essence.
Do I retreat, or go forwords?

Where do the words come from?
Somewhere deep within me.
Do I retreat, or go forwords?
Don’t stop now.

Somewhere deep within me
Emotion fights its way to the surface.
Don’t stop now.
There is much to learn from these scribblings.

Emotion fights its way to the surface,
Illuminating the unrecognized hurts.
There is much to learn from these scribblings.
This is why I am who I am.

Illuminating the unrecognized hurts,
Backtrack, inhale the essence.
This is why I am who I am
The pen scratches along the page.
