And these words I try to combine
coerce into rhyme
fight me back each time
sabotage each line
But again I try
until the pen is dry
I pick up a pencil and stare at the page
stare into the spotlight, frozen on stage
Open my lips to speak
even to cry
If only I could
the moments slip by
Breathing their lies
I am forced to shut my eyes
But how long can I hide
before the doubts collide
erode my state of mind
and leave me blind?

Thank you. That means a lot to me.
