Words unspoken- Poem

Updated: Mar 11, 2023

I’ve heard Melodies

spouted out by friends,

sheer genius poured

from the lips of poets,

And I’ve been moved

by the most vital wisdom.


I, too, have much to say, but

The world doesn’t want my words

Because they’re too different,

Too quiet to rise to an occasion.


They sit here in my mind.

They rattle against my teeth.

Demand to be set free.

Choke me. Smother me.


But i am too different, so i stay quiet.

And die inside
