Maybe Then is my most recent poem (as of 2/23/08 ) and is directly inspired by myself. Not a book, movie, song, someone else's life, or random. It comes from the inside/heart. It is actually structured as far as syllables per line, and the untraditional capitalization was inspired by e.e. cummings ninja .
i wish i had,
had the courage,
the courage to,
to tell him how,
how, what, i feel.
and if i had,
had the courage,
i wish i had,
had the words to,
to describe it.
and if i should,
should have the words,
i wish i could,
could have a chance,
a chance to tell,
tell him and be,
be understood.
if i only,
only had the,
had the courage,
courage, the words,
the words, a chance,
Maybe Then i,
i could truely,
truely start to,
start to move on.
Maybe Then my,
my heart could heal.
Maybe Then,
Maybe Then,
Maybe Then.
