I write the words I cannot pray.
Too false for Heaven, too honest for Hell.
I must tell the truth by lying well.
I write the words I cannot pray.
I hold my breath—one-second, two-seconds—I find the words I cannot say.
I must tell the truth by lying well.
Too false for Heaven, too honest for Hell.
I click my pen and write my heart open.
I write the words I cannot pray.
—W. Alexander
Do me a favor, if you like my short poem, please tweet it or share it. I know so many feel this way. I have been learning, reading, and writing poetry in school lately. I have very little gage on what is good, and what is not. Although, I hope you like it all the same.
