Embracing the Struggle

Frustration sets in, words caught in flight,
Need to say them, but they don’t come out right.
Misunderstood whispers, lost in the air,
Thought I was improving, but do I dare?

Each fix feels like labor, each word a retreat,
Struggling to express what’s deep and discreet.
Yet in every stumble, a flicker of light,
I’ll embrace my own voice, finding strength in the fight.

  1. Words wander around
    Under the whispering moon
    Do not wonder
    There’s no need to worry
    Thoughts winnow into words
    When wistful eyes hear sound
