I would like to share one of my poems with you here. I am the author.

"Words"

Sometimes I feel

that words

just get in the way

In saying the things

I'm trying to say.

Some days it's hard to express

just how my heart feels inside--

And when I do,

I often realize

that what I said

is not what

I meant to say,

And things

just come out wrong.

If we could communicate

mind to mind

and not have to speak

so that thoughts and things

wouldn't get all jumbled up--

It'd be so much better,

Wouldn't it?
