If I could write without words
If I could write without words
I would not sit and contemplate
A secondary insight
As if it was my own
I would not listen to the pace
Of my breathing, but be the breath
Or the nameless notion of air
I would not hold on or let go
Or need to separate the two
If I could write without words,
I would not be an author
Nor would I be an artist
I would be
An aspiration;
A wave without a witness
A note without a sound
I would be the book
As it was being written
Pages and pages deep
Unfolding
An endless story
Your lines “I would not listen to the pace Of my breathing, but be the breath” were to me just brilliant!
Thank you!
Love it! ❤
