I Write Poetry
A fraction of a second
A whispered secret
A small moment in time
A single syllable
That's all it takes
To turn me inside out
To flip all that I know
And rearrange everything I thought I knew
To crush my memory
And defile my future
Unexpectedly throwing me for a loop
Tossing me into the middle of nowhere
A deserted forest
And forgetting to leave me with a map
No way out
Not a comfort in the world
Just like that
Everything is changed
A whispered secret
A small moment in time
A single syllable
That's all it takes
To turn me inside out
To flip all that I know
And rearrange everything I thought I knew
To crush my memory
And defile my future
Unexpectedly throwing me for a loop
Tossing me into the middle of nowhere
A deserted forest
And forgetting to leave me with a map
No way out
Not a comfort in the world
Just like that
Everything is changed
