How To Say

There my pen upon the table
There my story held within
Not to tell, nor to be able
How to say, how to begin
Silence to implore the din
Courage alas dismayed
For now this place I’m in
With time for me forbade
Content will you be?
These moments with me to share
This silence here with me
And imagine that I wrote it there
