I want to write the words that leave a clever linguist spellbound.
I want to tame emotions we all feel.
I want to make you see whole and empty, both at once.
I want to tell you happiness can steal.
I wish to make you hurt as though you’re guts are scraping jagged ground,
I wish to mend your bones and force your heal.
I wish to shape my letters in the fashion of your heart.
I wish to forge my words from angry steel.
