Leave Me Alone
Words have no meaning
And yet nor do sounds
These letters have no feelings
My pen is a tool I have found
I simply write words down
Like a common fool
These thoughts like a forest they grow
I feed them onto paper
And into this maze I lean
Spoken in a language never seen
I assemble words in a line and lead
Them out into the world by hand
For you all to read
Now leave me alone
As there is more than just words
On a page, that I need!
