    Before I let the words flow 

    There’s a ritual I follow or maybe     I don’t 

    I open up a book for the thoughts I am incapable of 

    And I wonder if I am too selflish      a rat

    eating and teething everything my new born teeth could find 

    My hands too tiny, I might learn to  carry the wonders I am not 

    If I learn to balance them on swords I will be strained a king 

       A kingdom built in vain 

    Oh my, they lived in isolation though 

    Enough and immaculate poets 

     

    They have mastered the new tricks when I don’t even know the old 

    I am but a flower reflecting on the blackish damned dungeons 

    Of hell, such a sorrow 

    There’s a cry in the faraway halls but no, 

    No my spirit is not lost 

     

    I won’t shine I could not yet sailing through the motionless ocean 

     tints of gold 

    I am not enough and yet I write 

     But maybe I don’t 

    Maybe,  maybe they are just whispers of I hold 

                                          ~Sarah 

         As to why I write poetry,           when I am not enough
