The Other Language

There are words that avoid the paper, That hides from the pen, That detest the ink, That cannot be typed down, That I cannot grasp That is my heart, That speaks without letters, That still comes to life, That articulates when let so, With the language it invented, With a vocabulary that is pumped through my blood. © Gry W Christensen
