Wordplay
December 3, 2015
Words spin in my head
From forthwith they come
In a tumult current
Send awash emotion
And swiping me off my feet
Hurling me into the wind
I sit adrift with my words.
My words and I alone
On an island
To ourselves I sit
Deathly quiet, my words fill my mind.
Triangulate, capitulate, manipulate
They do unto me
As I to them
Dancing in the free-flowing breeze
With words,
My head spins.

I think that this poem can speak to you in whatever way you take it as. Relationship? Sure. Personal struggles? Sure. Stress and school? Most definately. Where ever you are in life right now, we've all felt like this before. Just a fun little piece to write.
