My Pen Cries

Pain
                                                 Fills pens
                                                Embedded
                                             Within the ink
                             Hurt reveals itself with every stroke

                             Exposing that which I try to conceal
                                           Each letter weeps
                                               with sorrow
                                                  My pen
                                                     cries

This is really good, Chiquita. I want to say Banana. (sorry, I bet you get teased about that a lot!!) Chiamaka sure is an interesting name!

Chiquita, you and your poetry are so deep I feel I could drown in the river of your thoughts. Don't stop. Don't stop. Don't EVER stop...Terry
