Piles of papers
Piles of notes
Filled with my writing
Words that I wrote
Words that had leaked
From my head to my pen
Maybe someday I’ll post them
Right now I don’t know when
Some words have no meaning
They’re different from the rest
The question I am faced with
Is will they stand the test
It doesn’t really matter
Much at all to me
Maybe when the time comes
I will hear their silent plea
I’ll put them in a poem
For all the world to see
I’ll show you all my poetry
You’ll then see the real me

Great words Walt, And throw us all the old words too, I’ve been delving and dabbling into my old archives since I started blogging, and a lot of fun editing and rehashing them.

I love it! The image of the poet spilling out his heart and soul through ink onto piles on pages. Wonderfully written especially since it’s about you 🙂

You only have one life. Put all out there.
At worst…proudly embarrass yourself.
I do every day.
Have a great day Walt.
