No, Not I
To snatch a moment of time,
weave it into something tangible.
(No, not I).
Create imagery with words that dance,
around and behind the eyes.
(No. Not I).
Pull emotions by blending,
amounts of self, facts and fiction.
(No, not I).
Holding the soul of the reader close,
so that they live that moment.
(Not I).
Accepting you have failed
and nothing more needs be written down.
(I).
