Though the Air is Thick

Tue, 09/17/2013 - 20:58 -- Zakiwih

Words twist and fumble

Through your mind

Can't find the right word 

Or the right line

You sit, you stare, you breakdown in worry

As if the words have just left you in a hurry

Butterflies swarm in you

Like a mob you just can't get through

You question yourself

Your sanity

For the life you once knew has now been changed

You say, "Is it you that makes me feel this way?

Or is it just the intangible hope of me wanting to see you everyday?"

Today marks the day

That you have found your one and only soul mate

And not the weight of the world

That comes down on you

Will un-whirl that fate

Not even the steaming hate of those who surround you

Because as the saying goes, 

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."

Your newfound love will stand stronger,

Soaring higher than the tallest building on planet earth

Those words that you twisted and fumbled around, through the hardest of ways,

Have just been found.
